One of my co-workers always treats me as a subordinate in meetings. It really bugs me because he’s actually my peer, but he acts like he’s my supervisor and tries to filter everything I do through to our bosses. How can I stop this jerk from constantly doing this?

Your colleague’s behavior may be irksome, but getting caught up in the emotional struggle here ultimately won’t be very productive for you. Stop focusing on how his behavior makes you feel and instead play your own game.  

This means being ready to assume leadership on tasks that arise—particularly in meetings. Your peer will be waiting to jump in, too, so be the one to volunteer first. If your colleague is simply too good in these situations, consider setting up these responsibilities with your boss outside of your colleague’s presence. And if necessary to weaken his position, you can withhold your support of this colleague in some key area where he needs you—maybe you simply become too busy or otherwise unavailable.

I knew a manager at a large technology company who was in a similar situation with a peer who pretended he needed to constantly know what she was working on, but was actually preempting her so he could report on her status. He was very adept at implying to their supervisors that she was smart but more effective if her work were funneled through him. And so this manager had to learn to not share specific information with him and to claim ownership of other projects and establish her reputation. As she got more positive feedback, her colleague wound up more isolated, and she had a much better platform from which to pursue her goals.
 
Look at this as a tactical issue—your peer has thus far been able to outplay you, and so you have to focus on becoming a better player. Getting upset freezes you from any action other than a desire to confront the other person, which likely isn’t going to be that useful. Instead, perhaps you can convert that emotional energy into competitive fuel that you can use to advance yourself.
