Talking politics in the workplace: Dos and don'ts

Democrats' blue tsunami and massive Republican losses in Tuesday's midterm elections are all anyone can talk about this week, but dishing your political hot takes at work comes with pitfalls. Driving the news: Axios Philadelphia chatted with Matt Levendusky , a political science and communication expert at Penn, who gave us his dos and don'ts for talking politics in the workplace — whether that's on Slack or around the water cooler. ☝️ Setting clear ground rules is essential. It's helpful to have guardrails around which topics can be discussed, tone and what's out of bounds. 👂 Understanding, not persuasion If you disagree with someone politically, focus on understanding their perspective rather than trying to convince them your side is correct. 🚶‍♂️ Walk away If a conversation is getting heated, bow out of it. 🤔 Worth it? Consider whether discussing politics at work is really necessary, especially with people you probably don't know very well. Pro tip: It often isn't worth it. 🛑 1 big no-no You don't always have to offer your opinion. "Sometimes, it's totally fine not to comment and to just not engage, especially if you aren't in the headspace to do so constructively," Levendusky says.
