Accepted Answer

I would address the issue through coaching, training, setting clear expectations, and monitoring progress.

Provide additional training or resources to help improve the team member's performance.
Set clear performance expectations and goals for the team member to work towards.
Regularly monitor and provide feedback on the team member's progress.
If necessary, consider reassigning tasks or responsibilities to better fit the team member's strengths.
If performance does not improve despite efforts, consider implementing a performance improvement plan or taking disciplinary action.
