THE ART OF SAYING NO

"The art of leadership is saying no, not saying yes. It is very easy
to say yes." (Tony Blair)

As a leader, we have to be able to say "no"

This word is the most difficult one to be uttered. It takes a lot of
courage to say it.

Especially when it has to be said to someone powerful.

Sometimes, it will disappoint someone when we say it.

But as a leader we have to be able to differentiate between making a
lot of people happy or maintaining the course of our leadership in the
right track.

Making everybody happy is the first formula to destroy a good leadership.

Saying "no" to a bad offer from someone powerful is the courage that
will bring the leadership to serve its purpose which in the end will
create good to many.
