How & when do you identify a "bad team player"?

1. They simply do not contribute enough. They do not live up to commitments. They do not do enough- adding to the workload of others in the team.
2. Unwilling to Share: While quick to learn from others and find out all that’s going on, they are loath to share their knowledge and experience with others. They think learning and sharing is “one way traffic”.
3. Not worthy of Trust: They share the wrong things. If you happen to share a confidence with them, they misuse that information. They do not keep a secret. They like to talk of the problems affecting others while keeping theirs to themselves.
4. Pursue Personal Goals: While there is nothing wrong in pursuing personal goals- indeed all of us do that- this should not be at the cost of team goals. Ineffective team members are not on the same page as the team. They choose their own priorities and areas of interest- which do not necessarily fit in well with the team’s agenda and priorities.
5. Blame & Excuses: Excuses for non-performance and blaming others is a common behaviour. Faults lie with others, the kind of work, the facilities, the client- well almost everyone other than themselves.
6. Unduly Pessimistic & Negative: They are gloomy and pessimistic and do not keep this to themselves. Any idea is met with a cynical comment that it won’t work. Any move to be different is met with resistance without understanding what is involved.
7. Lack of Sensitivity: Feelings and needs of other team members do not concern them. Yet, they expect their colleagues to be very careful about trampling upon their own feelings. As a result, ineffective team members have no sense of timing, bring up issues at the wrong times and exaggerate perceived insults when none are meant.

After allocation/distribution of work , the very first follow-up action and approach will reveal whether he/she is a team player or not.

During the interview from personal history.

Having a problem person on your team isn’t particularly pleasant because they can have a negative affects on the rest of the team and the project at hand.

They are already identified by their negative attitude and poor performance.
