Saying No Instead of No, but

No is a complete sentence.  No, but opens us up to a violation of our personal boundaries, and/or has us agreeing to do something that we truly don't want to be involved with, or simply cannot do.
No, but overloads us.

Featured Interview with Dr. Joni Carley

The Alchemy of Power,  The Alchemy of Power reveals:
what power is
what it means to have it
how to develop and manage it
how to navigate the global call for leaders to use their power to create a better world by developing better workplaces.
Joni’s uncommon leadership expertise, combined with her knack for transformative dialog, engages audiences in thought-provoking and behavior-changing ideas. Her unique depth & breadth of experience – ranging from the board room to the jungle, universities to the United Nations, and from executive coaching to keynoting – helps give voice to a large, powerful, diverse, but often neglected, socially responsible demographic that has reached a critical mass but is rarely represented in media.
She represents the voices of citizens around the world who are increasingly demanding that business and social leaders transition from win/lose to all-win strategies. There is an emergent global call for leaders to make better workplaces and a better world by letting values drive decision-making.
Dr. Joni’s expertise in leadership and cultural transformation offers a deeper cut to core issues, using ageless wisdom, cutting edge thought leadership and practical application.

Featured Interview with Dr. Bruno Cignacco

https://humanorientedenterprise.com/
THE ART OF COMPASSIONATE BUSINESS. MAIN PRINCIPLES FOR THE HUMAN-ORIENTED ENTERPRISE by Dr. Bruno R. Cignacco (2019, Productivity Press, Routledge -Taylor and Francis)There are several well-ingrained assumptions regarding the dynamics of work and business activities, which can be refuted. Some examples of these widespread assumptions in the business and work environments are: employees being viewed as commodities, competitors perceived as threats, companies’ resources seen as limited, and customers perceived as scarce and difficult, etc. All which leads to the question, "Is there a way to perform business activities more humanely?"This book challenges the reader to change the way they perform in business situations and become more focused on the human aspects of business activities. The users of this knowledge and those affected by them will undergo a profound transformation in the way they perform business activities. They will benefit from gradually testing and implementing the guidelines conveyed in this book, both in the business environment and the workplace. When readers put these principles into practice, positive ripple effects are bound to affect other stakeholders of the organization they work for or own.This book includes aspects related to mission and vision, passion, business mindset, organizational learning, improvement of business conversations, use of constructive criticism and improvement of relationships with the most relevant stakeholders (customers, suppliers, intermediaries, community, and employees, etc.). The book also includes a discussion of creativity and the innovation process, as well as other factors that create a healthy business environment. Extensive appendices include topics such as negotiation, marketing, use of social media and others.https://www.routledge.com/The-Art-of-Compassionate-Business-Main-Principles-for-the-Human-Oriented/Cignacco/p/book/9780367139254Review of the bookhttp://bit.ly/2NCrBar
