Description:
Everybody wants something from you. Clients, supervisors, vendors, colleagues, staff, and so on. As professionals, we are conditioned to say 'yes'. During office meetings, sales pitches, and even interviews, we're expected to say 'yes' without hesitation: "Yes, I will do that...Yes, I can get it done..."
Sometimes saying "yes" at work is the way to go. "Yes" to that new project, "yes" to more responsibility, "yes" to that promotion you've been eyeing. But sometimes, "yes" just isn't right. The overuse of 'yes' can lead to stress, anxiety, mistakes, poor performance, and damaged reputations. Learn how to succeed by saying "no."
