Whether you manage someone who repeatedly asks the same questions, overshares, needs constant affirmation, or struggles receiving criticism, the best way to resolve the issue is to address it head on.
If you give in to their behavior out of fear of hurting their feelings, you will only reinforce it. Emotionally needy people often don’t realize the degree to which they drain others.
