I'm responsible for a group of five, and usually we work together fine, but now one of them is dealing with some personal problems that make him aggressive and defensive and he's putting the current project in danger.

I want that player

One of my coworkers is considering leaving the department and applying for another position, but she is currently responsible for the most important assignment of our department ever, and she's doing a great job. I don't want to see her go.
