Negative Reactions to Newcomers

When a newcomer joins a team of veterans, it can trigger negative reactions among the existing teammates. These reactions are often stronger when the newcomer differs in relational characteristics, such as likability, rather than task-related characteristics. It is important for the existing teammates to manage these reactions and foster a positive and welcoming environment for the newcomer.
