Ep 187 - The Ultimate Career Catalyst: The Power of Saying 'No'
Manage episode 490426362 series 2981878
Do you have a tendency to say YES - or saying nothing at all - when really, you want to say NO?
Today I am exploring 6 different scenarios where you might need to say 'No!' more often in your career!
I am sharing some powerful reframes so that you can say 'no', without having to say 'no' at all!
We are talking too about how saying 'no' can result in huge benefits to you, as well as greater ROI for your organisation!
Pushing back, and saying 'no', has never been easier! I'll see you inside!
Something I said today:
"Saying 'No' can be presented in lots of different ways to make it more palatable. For example, you can say, "Look, I don't agree with this" or 'I think we need to take a step back and discuss this more" or "I feel like this is the wrong decision to take, can we look at this again? Working on reframes like this can make it extremely easy to push back and say 'no'." (Rebecca Allen, Host - Her Ambitious Career Podcast)
