I treat most conflicts the same. I analyze the conflict and create a list of steps I can take to
resolve it. By thinking about these steps and taking action, I found that most conflicts are easy
to handle.

I had to fire one employee who continually failed to complete projects. Before firing this
employee, I tried to work with him by motivating, encouraging, and even providing different
work. In the end, nothing worked and I had no choice but to let him go.

The only time I had to fire someone was when an employee was continually late. We have a
company policy of giving a verbal warning for the first three offenses, and then a written
warning after the 3rd offense. I had many discussions about this problem with this employee,
but it didnt help. In the end, we had to let him go.

What do you do when a worker is giving the team more problems than helping?

(Cc) cch tr li.

I follow a process of helping my coworker out in any way I can. This can include assistance in
their portion of the work or by encouragement. If that doesnt work, then we redistribute the
work to make sure everything is covered. I believe its important to let my manager know of the
problem as well.

Its hard to deal with a worker that puts in great effort but slows down the team. I noticed it is
best to tackle the problem early. One way I found that was helpful was to be more firm. This
way, the project continues to move forward without so many interruptions due to small
arguments.

I know enough is enough when Ive exhausted all measures to help this employee grow. I would
do my part by providing encouragement, giving extra instructions, mentoring, and giving
different types of work. If I exhaust all of these steps, then I know I cant do anything further
and that is when enough is enough.
