| Jul 8, 2019 at 11:39 | comment | added | Tim | Who eventually appoints the leader "officially"? On what grounds is a leader appointed? What specifically caused you to have been appointed the leader for the first part / phase of the project you're leading? What would lead to him, instead of you, being chosen as the leader of the second part / phase? The dynamics here aren't clear. It sounds as though the leader could possibly be appointed as would a political "leader", on the grounds of popularity and whatnot, instead of solely skills and experience and competence. What sort of projects are involved, e.g. engineering? | |

| Jun 28, 2019 at 21:11 | comment | added | Em C | Hi and welcome! I noticed you have a few different questions here, both dealing with the person causing this and your other colleagues. In order to make this not too broad, I suggest focusing on just one at a time. It'd also be helpful if you could clarify what outcome you'd like when you say "deal with" the situation (stop him from taking over your project? escalate to management? Keep in mind also we're focused only on interpersonal skills, if you're interested in workplace-specific advice you may want to search The Workplace since they may have similar questions already). | |
