Can you share a time when you had to handle a difficult colleague or team member who was causing friction in the workplace, and how did you effectively address the situation to improve teamwork and collaboration within the team?

A: Yes, I had a situation where a colleague was consistently missing deadlines and causing tension within the team. I approached the colleague privately to discuss the issue, expressing concern about the impact on team morale and productivity. We worked together to identify the root cause of the problem and developed a plan to improve communication and accountability. By setting clear expectations, providing support, and offering constructive feedback, we were able to address the issue and improve teamwork and collaboration within the team.
