Case Scenario 1:

Katherine has two employees who have never seemed to get along. One of the employees has a history of being vindictive and manipulative but never in an obvious enough way for Katherine to have sufficient proof to reprimand her in writing.

Questions: How does Katherine react to this situation? What steps should Katherine take from here?
