How to deal with toxic team member
It’s sad to see individuals who have been “captured” by disruptors, who have put a case together against them but hold back from launching it provided they remain loyal.
Much has been written about toxic work cultures, but I often thought the term “toxic” was unduly harsh given what was being described. However, I have also come across examples where the word truly describes what’s going on.
In many cases, the root cause of the toxicity is just one person – completely, unambiguously. So I thought it would be helpful to put together a picture of such characters, before diving into the consequences of their behaviour and how organisations can deal with them.
