website builder This article, about politely declining requests from co-workers (and anyone) came to my attention through September’s Marshall Memo.
Some ways to say “no” nicely are the following:
– “This is an important event, and I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to give it the attention it deserves.”
– “Can you give me a few weeks to think about this and call you if I think I can make this work?”
– “You are so kind to think of me. I wish I could.”
