I think we all work / have worked with someone like that.

One thing we did last year to avoid that was set meeting rules for faculty meetings.  Something to the effect of "Everyone has a voice - but one voice should not rule over all".  That way the rules can be referred to if someone is attempting to dominate, which allows someone else to share a viewpoint.

She's likely got something going on in her life that's feeding this neurosis..  But who knows?  This iis also how some people's anxiety manifests, when working in large groups of people or when they are seemingly "on stage" with others.

My wife tends to dominate conversation.  We went to Newport for a weekend and this nice bartender is trying to give us the history of the Vanderbilt family and she interrupted him like 10x and I had to whack her on the leg like what is wrong with you?  After a few Oktoberfests she just never stops talking..  Thankfully it's only after a few Oktoberfests.
