A different pace
Three months after starting, any decent (and decently supported) manager will have a list achievements and changes they’ve put in place. They’ll have made…
There’s someone on the team who isn’t quite pulling in the same direction as everyone else. Maybe it’s something about their work ethic. Maybe they’re working at a different pace or to their own agenda. Sometimes it feels like they’re on the outside and not looking in.
It certainly feels like they’re on a different page.
If that’s not a problem – because they’re only nominally part of the team and are actually doing solo work in association – keep on truckin’.
