We are remote. He’s been told at least a few times.
I can do this over 1:1 over remote, but it definitely doesn’t feel the same.
We have a team onsite in a few weeks. I could do it then. I still think it’s more likely than not that things will go sour, especially since the rest of the team will actually be there, and I’ll be letting him know a lot of the team has had issues with him.
The rest of the team is extremely passive and conflict-averse. It’ll be awkward then.
I can try a remote 1:1 since I think there are more ways to keep a cap on this.
The very fact that I have to tiptoe around this makes me realize this guy is super volatile and angry. Even reducing our 1:1 cadence, which I did for all team members simply due to too much meeting load on me, led him to cancel them altogether.
Keep calm. You have time and the team on your side, if not management. Don’t let hin drag you down, he will only continue to sabotage himself. All you need to do is mitigate risk and update management on his misdoings.
