Grapevine communication at the workplace is common but should not be a regular practice. If, as a leader, I am facing too many off-the-wall stories, I will address and stop them as, eventually, it shows the ineffectiveness of the leader and internal issues. Also, this decreases the team's productivity, who starts to believe in such communication and does not give their 100%. Regular incidents affect a company's reputation as well. Therefore, I will take a few steps to handle it. I will keep my communication with the team transparent. When any information gets exposed without time or leaders' control, it causes miscommunication. Thus, I will make announcements on promotions, changes, etc., with complete reasoning. Secondly, I will ask for the team's opinion often. Making the team feel involved reduces gossip and develops a sense of value. If team members or employees don’t know where to look for information, it only grows grapevine communication. Therefore, I will try my best to provide them with the relevant and necessary true information. Besides, an engaging communication platform helps teams and employees interact and feel part of it.
