Isaac should try to understand Dexter's perspective and ask for his support in important tasks. A supervisor may learn that one or more employees had been candidates for the supervisor's job and therefore may be jealous. One constructive approach that a supervisor might take to this problem is to acknowledge the other person's feelings, ask for the employee's support, and discuss his or her long-term goals.
