Know-It-Alls
Some try to dominate communication with their knowledge. They may know a lot, but may be overbearing about a topic. Several ways of coping are:
- Question, don’t confront unless wanting argument.
- See if you can learn and enjoy knowledge.
- Give credit for info.
- Change topic after awhile.
- If ongoing contact, do homework to find out facts.
- Present alternative facts as valuable to you or others.
If you need to handle this, what is your plan?
