The term “bad apple rots the bunch” comes because once an apple is rotten or has physical damage, (ie a bruise), it produces ethylene, which in turn leads to a slightly increased internal temperature causing a breakdown of chlorophyll and the synthesis of other pigments. Once this happens, it starts a chain reaction, stimulating the process in other apples.

The same can be applied when one bad person is put in a team setting – how can you combat this? We’ll learn tomorrow.
