One of your associates continues to show up late for work. You have mentioned this to him before, and he says it will get better. Conversations are becoming tense and awkward. What would you be most and least likely to do?
1) Tell him his behavior needs to change immediately or there will be consequences
2) Have an informal conversation with this associate. Ask him how things are going. Try to uncover why he may be showing up for work late
3) Have an honest conversation with the associate. Tell him you appreciate his work but he needs to start showing up on time as it impacts the entire team
