A coworker may be undermining you when a repeated pattern interferes with your work, credit or reputation: withholding agreed information, misrepresenting your contribution, changing shared work without notice or blaming you for decisions they made. One mistake or disagreement is not enough to establish intent.
Missing information, shifted credit or a story told differently in front of your manager can leave you wondering whether the pattern is accidental or deliberate. You need clarity without escalating a conclusion you cannot yet support.

Describe what happened without assigning motive
Record the action, date, work affected and who was present. “The client update omitted my completed analysis” is clearer and more useful than “They want me to fail.”
Separate friction from deliberate undermining
| Possible conflict or confusion | Pattern worth escalating |
|---|---|
| Expectations were not agreed. | Agreed information is repeatedly withheld. |
| Credit was unclear once. | Your work is repeatedly presented as theirs. |
| A deadline was misunderstood. | False claims are made about your delivery. |
| Feedback is blunt but factual. | Your reputation is targeted with distortions. |
Protect your work with clear records
Fast Company’s guidance on suspected coworker sabotage recommends addressing specific behavior rather than relying on the label. Confirm responsibilities in writing, keep version history and share concise progress updates with the people responsible for the work.
Ask Maria what is driving the coworker dynamic

- The mindset and intention your coworker appears to hold toward you.
- Competitive pressure, hidden influence or misunderstanding shaping the pattern.
- How the dynamic may develop and where your strongest response lies.
