Career Tips: The Art of Just Saying No

Last month I wrote about how critical it is to focus your search.

This is a time when you may be perceived as having time on your hands,
and therefore are called upon to take on a lot of tasks you would be
assumed not to have time for if you were working. It is also a time
when you desperately need to focus your energies, but can be overwhelmed
by all of the things you COULD be doing to move your search forward.

One of the most important strategies for creating that focus is learning
the art of saying "No."

There are two extremes here. One is the sharp, brusque "NO!" that has
others start to view you as being negative, unhelpful or only in it for
yourself. This contributes to a poor professional image that can harm
you just as much (or more) than having gone ahead and gotten involved.

The other extreme is the excuse-filled "No." This is where you provide
all sorts of justifications for why you are saying "No", and they come
across as overkill, just a series of excuses rather than valid reasons.
And again, this damages your professional reputation.

So how do you navigate between this Scylla and Charybdis? In my latest
issue of Career Tips I shared three principles for doing that, with
specific examples. I also addressed a common misconception about
effective networking.
