Realizing that culture change takes time but that’s it’s also necessary in this situation, what can you do right away as the new team leader to set this team on course for a positive change to its culture?

3 – A co-worker comes to you with a problem. He has tattoo “sleeves”on both arms that extends to his wrists. Even in a long-sleeved shirt, they are difficult to cover.
