Taking any action with problem employees is difficult enough. Even worse is the action you take is going to impact your teams trust, motivation, and performance – hopefully positively rather than negatively.

Many managers when facing a bad team member take actions that negatively impact trust, motivation and performance of their teams.

Problem team members could be underperforming employees, disruptive employees, negative team members … you must take action to limit the impact of a bad employee on the team.

Make the action you take to tackle a problematic employee fair and reasonable and escalate step by step. This gives bad team members plenty of chance to improve.

How to manage problematic employee must start with you being clear on why you are taking action. Take action to help the team overall and the business. Don’t take action is your mindset in on retaliation, revenge, using your position to control etc. The time will find out and trust will be seriously damaged.

With problem employees in the workplace, you must make it easy to them to improve. Make the time to coach and mentor them and show they how they can improve. This makes the corrective action you take a lot fairer.

I have found coaching underperforming employees a great way to encourage the majority of bad employees to improve and become productive happy team members. This is great to build trust with the team members watching what is happening.

It is rare that you can take staffing decisions on your own. Being fair towards problematic employees makes it a lot easier to build support with your manager, HR and other stakeholders. This in turn makes it a lot easier for you to take effective action with the bad staff member.

Lastly, any action you take must mean the team wins overall. If you are putting in a lot of time and effort, you want the team to be better off afterwards. This helps everyone and it helps you.

Good luck and remember, be fair and reasonable without be “too nice”.
