Business is filled with opportunities, and it's nice when you can say yes to customers, employees and vendors. But there are absolutely times when saying yes will lead to difficulty or even disaster. 商界充满了机会，有时候能够对客户、雇员和供应商说yes是很棒的。但一定有一些时候，说yes会导致巨大的困难甚至灾难。 Here are seven scenarios where no is the only way to go. Some may seem obvious, but I have often witnessed smart people get themselves in trouble by thinking they will somehow work everything out. Don't put yourself in a bad position unnecessarily. Recognize these 7 scenarios and just say No! 在以下7种情况中，说no是唯一的选择。其中的有一些可能看起来是显而易见的，但我还是经常能目睹一些很聪明的人因为自以为可以解决一切而让自己陷入麻烦。所以不要毫无必要地把自己置于一种不好的处境中。当你看到这7种情况的时候，要果断说no! 1. Say NO! When No One Is Ready 1.当谁都没有准备好的时候，说no! Many people say yes to a boss or customer request when the pieces of the puzzle aren't in place. Great work requires preparation. Great teams require alignment. If your team isn't prepared or aligned, agreeing to take on difficult initiatives is a disaster waiting to happen. Young companies often try to speed forward before their organizational structure or business model is ready. They instead end up burning investor money while killing dreams and reputations. Say No! so you can get everything and everyone on board and ready. Then you can say yes with confidence. |
