When teams enable problematic behavior from high performers

Our sales team has one person who consistently brings in the biggest deals but also creates drama and makes other people miserable and we all just work around her behavior because no one wants to lose the revenue. Everyone complains privately but in team meetings we act like everything is fine and I think we're teaching ourselves that performance excuses everything.
