The "toxic" person sounds like someone who needs coaching on how to interact with folks. Your immediate reaction is to insist on their termination. You may want to reflect on that.
- d--b 7y agoMy view is that he needs coaching for his next job. I think that the relationship would turn sour if the manager hints that people complained about the person’s behavior.
- sethammons 7y agoI know of a dozen counter examples where behavior has been addressed and improved. Several who then went on to be highly valuable to the org. Some people are illequiped to incorporate feedback and improve, and those will have to seek employment elsewhere. It seems an odd choice to me to not give someone who is already within the org a chance to improve and to prefer bringing in an unknown new person to replace them. This case did not come across (to me at least) as something unfixable. This is not a dangerous person, this is a person with communication issues.
