Think back to a time when your plate was already full, yet you still said "yes." Maybe it was taking on an additional project when you were already working overtime, agreeing to lead another initiative despite your jam-packed schedule, or even accepting a last-minute meeting request that threw off your entire day.
How did it feel in the moment? And how did it play out in the end? Did it lead to late nights, missed deadlines, compromised quality, or even burnout?
Saying "yes" can feel good in the moment, but the long-term consequences of overcommitment can be detrimental.
In this episode, I explore the vital leadership skill of saying "no." Learn why setting boundaries, prioritizing tasks, and fiercely protecting your time are non-negotiable for effective leadership.
Discover practical strategies to overcome the fear of saying no, set boundaries like a pro, and prioritize tasks that align with your values and goals.
