Episode 5: Why you’re saying yes when you really want to say no

Welcome to episode five of the Whole Assistant podcast!  In today’s episode, we’re going to discuss why you’re saying yes when you really want to say no.  Don’t believe the myth that you always have to say yes to get ahead in your career or to be seen as a good assistant.  In fact, a well-placed no will benefit not only you, but also your executive and the organization as a whole.

In today’s episode, we discuss:

  • Why always saying yes can result in a resentment rash and how this causes you to be less effective at your job.
  • The two scenarios when you shouldn’t say no.
  • Why you sometimes get sucked into saying yes and how it affects you and your job performance.
  • How to be solutions oriented even when you’re saying no.
  • The best way to say no (affirm-deny-affirm)
