There’s a good kind of gossip.
- One that builds, not breaks.
- One that lifts, not tears down.
I call it POSITIVE gossip. And it’s powerful.
Saying good things about people when they're not around. . . Creates a culture of appreciation and positivity.
Why say good things about people behind their backs?
1. It strengthens trust. When you speak well of someone who isn’t there, it shows integrity.It says, “I value you, even when you’re not around.” People notice that. And trust grows.
2. It builds culture. In teams, words spread fast. Negative talk creates tension. Positive talk creates connection. Be the person who spreads encouragement.
3. It multiplies kindness. Kind words have a ripple effect. Say something good about someone, and they’ll hear about it. When they do, they’ll pass it on. Positivity spreads.
4. It reinforces good behavior. When you highlight someone’s strengths, you reinforce them. You say, “This matters. Keep doing it.” It’s like giving a quiet round of applause.
5. It surprises people—in the best way. Most people expect criticism. They rarely hear praise behind their back. Positive gossip feels like an unexpected gift.
6. It shows leadership. Good leaders don’t tear people down. They lift people up. Positive gossip proves you’re focused on solutions, not drama. On collaboration, not division.
7. It boosts morale.Good words fuel people. They energize teams. A small compliment shared in private can create a big wave of motivation.
8. It reflects your character. What you say about others says a lot about you. Speak with kindness. Speak with respect. The words you share shape your reputation.
Start TODAY.
And do it behind their back. Let the words find their way to them.
When people know you talk about them positively, they trust you. They value you. And they’ll start to do the same for others.
Because positivity is contagious.
