When you are neither a psychologist nor a work consultant, you should not comment on this matter! But you can help yourself and others make the right decision by examining different scenarios! To find a solution for a problem, the first step is to correctly identify the problem!
You may ask yourself the following questions:
Why aggression? Wasn't there a logical and friendly solution?! Can I improve relations in the future through dialogue and negotiation?!
Even if the employee has done something wrong, can a manager be aggressive?!
Where is the dividing line between serious behaviour and aggressive behaviour?
Was this aggression limited, or did it happen several times?
Should the employee also react similarly?
What will the consequences of mutual aggression be?
Is it reasonable to continue working under such conditions?
Is it better for the employees to change jobs (if possible)?
Is silence the right solution?
Is ignoring always the best option?
Can using body language be a good option?
Can you change your manager?! Or at least change his behaviour towards you in the long run?
Is your manager a permanent manager, or is it possible to replace him or her with someone else in the next few months?
Do you have the possibility to work remotely (home office) or reduce the working time directly with your manager?
Can you wait longer and try to improve your relationship with proactive and creative work?
