Session Abstract
The thrill of a new opportunity often leads to an enthusiastic yes without taking into consideration our previous commitments, strategic plans, and at times overwhelming workload. Learning how to say no and establishing boundaries in which we can say yes are integral part of managing an open initiative. Join the presenters in an conversation where you'll learn how to establish professional boundaries through the art of saying no on an individual level, on a supervisory level, on a programmatic level, and on a collection management level. We'll share our strategies for saying no, provide tips and tricks youo can use in your daily work life to help manage the process of saying no, and create a space to have a conversation to practice saying no in your specific role.
