Saying No With Confidence

Saying “no” is about protecting what you value. It’s using your voice to say no: to an unfair request, an outdated practice, or an unjust situation. “No” is the keyword of change.

Based on the ground-breaking work by negotiation and mediation expert William Ury, author of “The Power of a Positive No”, participants will learn a finely-tuned 3-step process to help them prioritize with confidence, conserving energy for their most critical decisions so they stay focused on impact.

Participants Will:
  • Learn a three-step process to confidently say “no” while maintaining respect and rapport
  • Discover how to use their voice to protect what matters most
  • Practice handling tough scenarios and leave with ready-to-use responses that build confidence in high-stakes situations

I appreciated how she took the time to really understand our audience. We’ve never had a speaker engage that much with our group beforehand. As a result, she had a deeper connection with the audience.”
