This team doesn't get along with that team. Or this team is consistently missing deadlines, and even though you have addressed it, the delinquency persists. Or the new hire you just brought in doesn't seem to be a team player.

When you stop and process through these dynamics, it might hit you like a truck. "I'm managing a bunch of children!"
