EmploymentScape Chief Executive Officer, Harrison Barnes discusses the importance of protecting your reputation.
Harrison strongly believes that it is important to protect your reputation at all costs. Never let falsehoods be spread about you. In your career, you cannot take any chances with what people say about you.
You do not want people spreading negative information about you in the workplace. This can not only cause problems with your current job, but can also potentially damage your future employment prospects. If there are negative rumors circulating about you, they need to be stopped.
The best way to deal with rumors is often to acknowledge that they exist and then go out and do your best to address them. Addressing rumors is an excellent way to ensure that the truth behind them is not allowed to fester.
