Talks About Empowerment

Saying No is a superskill that everyone should develop. This discussion, based on the new book The Power of Saying No, introduces the groundbreaking concept of "empowered refusal". Empowered refusal is a unique, positive, and meaningful strategy to effectively controlling your energy and ambition, allowing you to create long-term, beneficial changes in your life. To achieve your goals at work and at home, it is more necessary than ever to guard your time, prioritize your tasks, and use the power of saying no.

A powerful speaker can turn an ordinary event into an extraordinary experience.
