The Most Draining Person on Your Team - Chronic Complainers


The most draining person on your team is not the low-performer. It is the chronic complainer.

A low-performer is a skill or will problem. It's a known variable, it's solvable.

The complainer is a cultural problem. They spread toxicity, kill morale and drain everyones energy.

You can fix a skill issue, fixing a bad attitude is near impossible.
