When you're training a successor but can't let go

I've been training someone to take over my work, and on paper they're ready. But every time I hand something real over, I hover, I check, I take it back the moment it wobbles. I say I want them to grow, and then I can't quite let my hands off the wheel.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You're training someone to take over, but you can't make yourself actually let go.
