One of my employees doesn't fit in

Introduction

Small businesses often rely on teams working closely together. If there is a personality clash or a difference of opinion about work, it can affect everybody's mood. When someone doesn't 'fit in', it tends to be quite noticeable.

Not fitting in can range from the seriously problematic, such as open hostility between a group and an individual, to things that just make you feel uneasy, such as an employee who doesn't participate in conversations or is regarded by others as a 'loner'.
