Understanding Interruptions

Not all interruptions are intentional; some individuals may interrupt due to personality traits or cognitive differences that prevent them from controlling their impulses. It's important to recognize that these interruptions may not be meant to offend or undermine the speaker. Acknowledging this can help contextualize the behavior and lead to more constructive conversations. This understanding lays the groundwork for effectively managing interruptions in a way that maintains respect and promotes better communication.
