Account Manager

How should I handle my coworker who is constantly interrupting me while I'm speaking? We're at the same level, but he only ever interrupts me. It feels personal.

    Could be. Could be a gender issue too. Could be a communication style difference. I have a colleague who takes long pauses while she's talking. We've learned to just wait and let her finish, but at first it was tempting to interrupt.

    I suggest having a one on one conversation about it. If that doesn’t solve the problem, talk to your manager and possibly HR business partner. Document all of the meetings, just in case.
