如何應對“有毒員工”？

Most of us have had to endure a corrosive fellow member of staff on one or more occasion during our working lives.

在工作中，大多數(shù)人不得不在很多場合忍受“有毒員工”。

He or she may in fact be good at their job, but their bad behaviour - everything from selfishness, bullying, rudeness, being overly-domineering, or even just being constantly too loud and opinionated - and can have a devastating impact on staff morale.

他/她或許很能干，但是他們的不良行為，比如自私、欺凌、粗魯、過分跋扈，甚至只是不斷地大聲嚷嚷和固執(zhí)己見，對員工士氣可能產(chǎn)生毀滅性的影響。

In academic circles, such a problem employee is now more often described as "toxic".

在學術界，這樣的“問題員工”現(xiàn)在經(jīng)常被描述為“有毒”。

One 2015 report by Harvard Business School estimated that keeping a toxic worker on the payroll can cost an average firm more than $12,000 a year.

哈佛商學院在2015年發(fā)布的一項報告估計，雇傭一名“有毒”的員工，普通公司一年要多投入1.2萬美元。

A separate study said that the annual financial impact of a toxic employee could be even more onerous.

另一項研究表明，“有毒員工”對公司的年度財務影響甚至還要更糟糕。
