Discover why it’s good to say “no” when you need to, and learn and how to do it.
Do you find yourself saying “yes” every time someone at work asks you to do something? Do you then find that you work late or don’t get your own work done because you are prioritizing deliverables for others over your own work? Do you find that saying “yes” to others distracts you from your own values in the workplace? Have you ever considered what would happen if you said “no” when someone asked you to do something you didn’t want to do at work? If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, this workshop is for you!
This workshop will help you to reflect on why it is so hard to say “no” to work-related tasks and explore some of the positive reasons to say “no” and the negative reasons for saying “yes.” We will then explore your own values and examine whether your values are reflected in the work you do. We will end with some practical strategies for saying “no” in the workplace to improve faculty well-being and reduce burnout.
