Workplace Strategies Watercooler 2024: People Problems—Strategies for Dealing With Problem Employee Situations

In this podcast recorded at Ogletree Deakins’ national Workplace Strategies seminar, Burton Garland (shareholder, St. Louis) sits down with Trina Ricketts (shareholder, Kansas City) to discuss strategies to effectively deal with the ten types of toxic employees that can be found in the workplace—including the bully, the narcissist, the back stabber, the unmotivated, and more. Trina and Burt provide practical insights on dealing with some all-too-common, yet complicated, employee situations. Our speakers discuss how these situations can affect business reputation, employee morale, company culture, and, in some cases, revenue—in addition to practical ways to combat these issues.
