What is the best way to say “No” to anyone at work or in general
"I don't have bandwidth"
Thank you, I personally agree with saying no with proper justification but have seen most of people just ignore and not respond completely.
TC & GTFO
I’d like to get to that but please loop in my manager and your manager so we can have an open discussion to de-prioritize my current workload to fit in your request. So we can have a data driven discussion, please ready the customer impact numbers, business goals, tech design doc and the BRD before our meeting.
Wait is this serious? Or like a trolling exaggeration of Amazon culture?
I’ve used this in the past, gets people off my ass for doing stupid shit they don’t want to do (or missed their deadline - sorry not sorry not my problem) or trying to get random requests done without going through proper channels.
Your team should have a method of prioritization. Is the new ask higher priority than the other work? Make it clear to the requester that there are trade offs. Saying no with no justification is a bad idea.
“Ask my manager for prioritization”
What's the impact ? What is the impact of not doing it ? What is the ETA ?
