Uniphore
AUGUST 12, 2021

SEPTEMBER 10, 2021
The Pot-Stirrer loves an injustice. He (she) lives to find real or imagined issues within the company, or even with you.

To make matters worse, he just doesn't seem to be happy until everyone at work is talking about it. The Pot Stirrer is almost always in the middle of workplace morale challenges.
