The Power of Saying No
A workshop offered by the Bonn Graduate Center
When everything feels like an opportunity, a priority, or an obligation, how do we say no? The truth is we cannot start saying no until we get clear on why we keep saying Yes. The workshop teaches you the power of saying no.

Description
In this workshop, we explore:
- Why we say yes so much – people pleasing, scarcity and uncertainty, and perceived opportunities, etc.
- Impacts of Saying yes – time poverty, exhaustion, loss of self and loss of joy for what we do.
- Why we need to start saying no – energy, long-term gains, well-being, productivity.
- How do we get it: confidence – what does it mean, what does it look and feel like; rewriting thought and behavioural patterns; Assertive communication and active listening.
