Incoming colleague criticizing manager
A peer from another part of my organization criticized my line manager (who I think highly of) in a private discussion to me, and I didn't react. However, due to office politics the peer will be joining our team for half the week (and remaining in their old role for the rest of the week). Would you recommend that I warn my line manager that the peer thinks poorly of them? What would be a professional way to treat/respond to my peer if they continue badmouthing my manager?
