When conducting our weekly meeting, I let the staff know that they needed to take up more responsibilities to make up for the gap left by employees who we let go due to the pandemic until things improved. George, a sales officer, was not happy. His tone expressed anger and he kept conveying pessimism to every idea that was suggested.
He refused to contribute to the shared responsibilities which led others picking up his work resulting in low productivity and missed deadlines. He also kept getting in trouble with everyone.’’
