Saying “no” just got a little bit easier!
Wave goodbye to feeling overwhelmed and exhausted by professional obligations.
As a woman on the tenure track, I often heard the advice “just say no.” But I suspected there was more to it than that. There were some requests and professional opportunities to which I should always say “no” (at least until after tenure), others to which I should say “no” to some of the time, and a select few that it would be foolish to decline.
