Answer:A leadership neutralizer

Explanation:

A leadership neutralizer is an element that hinders a leader from making changes that can improve the workers or result to the leader's effort making no relevant changes to the employees performance. Part of the leadership neutralisers form the everyday work environment and can be too hard to change such as in this case of Gary where he is faced with the preexisting work norms and cohesiveness of the groups that are too strong to convert since they have existed too long.
