How to Say No to Your Boss
Saying “no” to a request can be a difficult thing, especially when the person making the request is your boss.1.The following steps are helpful.
Give yourself some time to think about the request before saying “no”.
If the request arrives via email, don’t reply right away.
2.If your boss asks you in person or on the telephone, request some time to give it thought and tell her you will get back to her by a specific time. Consider the request carefully to determine whether you have to say “no”.
Prepare your answer before telling your boss “no”.
Anticipate questions she might ask in response to your answer, and decide how you want to answer them. Rehearse your conversation with your boss out loud to help build your confidence before the real conversation.
Choose the right time and place to speak with your boss.
Have the conversation in private if your work situation allows you to get a moment alone with your boss. Keep in mind your boss’s workday pressures and work style. If she is a morning person and gets grumpy(脾气暴躁的)in the afternoon, be sure to speak with her before lunch.
3.
If your boss is asking you to take on more responsibility, that shows that she has faith in your ability to do the job. Acknowledge that it means a lot to you before telling her that you feel you cannot do it.
Tell your boss why you have to say “no” to the request.
4.Your boss will be grateful that you answered honestly, rather than trying to take on a project you cannot handle.
Offer an alternative solution.
For example, if your boss asks you to serve on a committee, suggest someone else in the company that you think may be interested and capable of serving.5.
A. Pay your boss a compliment while denying her request.
B. Even if you try your best to do everything the boss lets you do, there are times when you can’t do and have to say “no”.
C. Put yourself in your boss’s shoes and consider how the company will be affected if you refuse the request.
D. Maybe you could offer to share the workload with someone else.
E. Most employers respect honesty in their employees.

G. Set the request aside and think about it for a while.
People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking. They try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.
First, the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.
Next, the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find out the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.
Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully.
After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.
Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.
Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short , he has solved the problem.
