accommodators
People making room
Accommodators are people who adapt to others' needs or preferences, often prioritizing harmony over their own interests.
In conflict resolution and learning theory, an accommodator is someone whose style emphasizes cooperation and flexibility: She's an accommodator—she'd rather give in than argue.
The term can be neutral or slightly dismissive, suggesting someone who yields too readily.
