THE MINUTIAE MONSTER - someone who is inefficient, unfocused, and obsessed with details.
Minutiae Monsters are time wasters, known for being indecisive, getting tangled up in details, and straying off course. In meetings, they're the ones who want to know how many widgets are attached to the thing-a-ma-jig when everyone else is focused on the big picture. Their obsession with details can be valuable - but only if it is controlled. If not, Minutiae Monsters will never get anything done or realize their potential to be strong contributors at work. When you need them, they will still be at the starting line, preoccupied by the fine points or busy doing something irrelevant.
