People who can't seem to stay out of other people's business often don't have enough business of their own. To deal with them effectively, remember:
1. Some Busybodies fear isolation; others want to be in control.
2. Move the Busybody into a position that fulfills her craving for contact.
3. Give the Busybody time - but direct the conversation to work issues.
4. Document your dealings in case discipline is required.
