About a Problem Employee



They'd talked to the HR people. The lawyer was even brought in. Upper management was alerted. Policies and procedures were consulted. Plans were developed. The employee's possible reactions were analyzed and the likely ones identified. And then someone asked, "Has anyone ever talked to the employee about this?"

You can guess the answer.

Why confuse the narrative by introducing a new variable?

The real question is, why do we avoid confrontation? Multiple reasons exist and I have been guilty of it. But it is, usually so much easier just to deal with a problem.
