Managing other people is never easy, but some employees make it particularly difficult. When an employee's toxic behavior is not addressed properly, other team members become resentful, they lose respect for you as a leader, and they may develop their own toxic behaviors. No leader wants a difficult or toxic employee on their team, however, it's something all leaders need to be prepared to address should it arise. Challenging employees can try a manager’s patience and drain a lot of time and energy. Turning things around takes skillful management and patience.
