And bossy workers can cause a lot of those negative interactions.
They may overestimate their abilities or simply believe they know more than you do, she tellsBored Panda.
They likely interrupt you, minimize your role, and bellow orders.
These negative interactions are more than an annoyance they color our perceptions of work more than we think.
For that, Daskalrecommendsthe following:
Stay calm.
To manage your bossy colleague, youre going to have to be assertive.
Maintain a calm, professional tone, and keep your interactions short and succinct.
Avoid making a scene and double-check you stay calm and respectful.
Dont take it personally.
