According to Hill's model of team leadership, the leader should take responsibility to build a positive team environment, and in this case, Niko can step up and use coaching behaviors to address the internal relations within the team, such as emphasizing active listening, clarifying misunderstandings, and encouraging mutual respect. Reporting to a supervisor or changing the structure of the team may not directly solve the interpersonal issues. Dismissing himself from the team is also not a productive solution.
