People who say YES to everything in an attempt to be liked, are quickly recognized as pushovers.
you have to have the ability to say “no”. Without that skill, you will be overloaded with requests and assignments, and continuously overworked and missing deadlines, the quality of your work will slip, and you will take on assignments that you don’t enjoy etc etc
but make sure you say no to the request, not the person and explain why.
Simply to say (NO) is a decision, and as we know decision maker is one of the main characteristics of successful manager
When you want to say "No" must be:
Be from the inside is convinced that it is not good
You must convince the other because of the refusal
We must not injure or cause of the problem when you say it
With all me respect, I think that in the creation of high development team to say "no" is a little failure, as it means that the objetives and goals have not been understood nor have been transmited clearly from manager towards team. But the root cause of this misunderstanding could be in the requeriments of the customer, that is, that these had not been understood for manager. To say "no" to something, is the same that to say for myself, that I don't know what to answer or even worst, I don't know what it means, in others words I don't know which is the right way to act. In my opinion, instead of to say "no", I would do a simple question "Why do you say/ask that? (or similar), in this moment be being created a quick brainstorming between the manager and the team and always ends with one solution. The "no" can not be assimilated by our brain.
Well, I believe that the question is somewhat incomplete. “NO” to boss, “NO” to team member or “NO” to colleague, “NO” to a team member on his rights say vacations or “NO” to team member for some privilege all have different fashion. A lot of may be said on it if you define it a little more
As per my belive if you say NO when its really needed your mind and soul should stick to NO otherwise there are some circumstance beacuse of outer pressures or some reason you say NO but you have dilemma inside whether you did right or wrong. I think sticking to your ground and thinking what you did is right will hold key for decision making , half hearted decisions doesnt give satisfaction.
I try my best never to say no to anything, for me it is too negative. I prefer to use:
Leave it with me,
It's not feasible at this time,
I’ll give it some thought and get back to you,
Let’s see what happens over the next few weeks, we can decide later.
All better than ‘NO’ !!
Yes its absolutely true bcoz lot depends on decision making unless and until a manager has a leadership quality he cant be a good Leader in return a lot vest in the hands of a Management Guy
For a Project Manager, leadership capacity and personality is very important. Someone who knows himself or herself very well, can take decision whatever it is or to whoever it favors. From the beginning of journey as the leader of a team, a Manager must show others that there is no question/doubt about his/her sincerity, punctuality, efficiency, skiils to take decision. If the team members have adequate knowledge on this points about their team leader and they know that their team leader can take right decision, then no one will question about his / her decision.
A successful manager should know what not to do and not only know what to do. Accordingly knowing when to say no is a key skill for successfull managers.
That time To say NO comes after knowing the opportunities gained / lost.... why Yes and why No ? which Is more beneficial to the managment and organization as a whole.
