Message: [QUOTE="Bayareahusky, post: 2359569, member: 2136"] Yes Candace has a strong "personality" .... she is no doormat, and she stands up for herself.... and I admire her for that..... from my time in sales management, I remember my very best producers also be the most difficult to get along with..... and it certainly was my responsibility to make the adjustment, because dealing with their difficult ways was paying me a handsome paycheck. As long as their being difficult was not affecting the rest of the team, and it was not unethical, then I made the adjustment. With the national team.... this could have been the scenario.... but with the US national team, there were so many alternatives, nobody was beyond reproach. If Sue, Tamika, or Simone wanted to "be difficult", then there was no problem finding a suitable replacement.... Not suggesting that this was the case..... just saying that tolerance level for anything that you wanted was very very low. [/QUOTE]
