How can I change my attitude toward a manager at work with whom I have a weird relationship? Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently, but I'm frustrated with how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed.

This manager rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself during presentations without letting me continue. It's very different from everyone else there. While it's useful in some ways, it's also frustrating. I'm proud that I recognize I need to adjust to her behavior. Will changing my attitude help her loosen her resistance too?
