Analyst Tries To Talk Like Me

Imitation is the highest form of flattery. If it bugs you just poke some fun at him, and he’ll probably stop lol.

Honestly that’s a complement, he’s emulating someone he looks up to

I don't think he even needs to be aware. He probably just likes the way you speak and subconsciously emulates it when on call to be more well-spoken. 

I wouldn’t say anything, seems like they look up to you

We were all figuring out our own way of doing things and a lot of it was imitation, at least for me. I still find myself dropping phrases I picked up from people I learnt from coming up. Tell him that. Give him constructive and helpful feedback on how to be more impactful when speaking up. 

That's a huge compliment, likely means he's not a confident presenter but is paying attention to how you present and thinks you do it well. I'd guess he has no idea he is doing this. I wouldn't mention it, you'll make a nervous presenter even more nervous because he'll be focused on how he's speaking.

Just let him keep doing this, try to arrange some speaking roles for him on less important, internal calls (training new analysts, project circle-ups etc) to get more reps. He'll eventually find his own voice.

Take it as a compliment man, the kid looks up to you. There’s an associate who I work with, and though I don’t exactly emulate his way of speaking, I eat up everything he says.

corporate glazing is crazy

That’s a good thing. You should aim to have the employee you manage mirror your behavior and style of business. That means you are doing it correctly and he is doing the same. Plus you are more senior, successful and powerful than him in the organization, so if he’s your employee that’s a good thing. If he starts doing that with people in the group that’s a different story

i'll give u a useful answer - either tell him to try and sound a little more natural when he speaks, or speak to someone else senior about it, see if they notice, and if they do ask them to give him a quick word of advice for you. Ask them to tell him the same thing, to try to come off a little more naturally (I'd avoid mentioning that he's beginning to sound like you)

Start saying "chewsday" like the Brits do and see if he copies - haha.

Lol you should make up some lingo and see if he picks it up

Talk like yoda
