Comment on The Art of Saying No by Bill Kutik

Having been self-employed for 21 years (to the general acclaim of employees everywhere), I am very jaded on his subject, Mark. My definition of a “team player” is someone willing to do something less well than he knows it should be done because someone more powerful wants it done that way.” Having very strong opinions on how just about everything should be done, I choose to work alone. Good luck with your new ventures.

Great commentary Mark, and you are correct; No is an art, I think this can happen outside of work too, at your church, your sport league, your family we all need to say No, and say it artfully more often. Sadly it is a hard thing to do, and by not saying no we find ourselves overwhelmed or disappointed, or sometimes just plain mad that we didn’t.

Great piece, and good luck on your latest venture. I will watch how HRFlorida goes for VOHR.

Thanks, Mark, the only item I would add to your list is that two vendors are simply paired in a Shootout breakout session — which you, Steve and Mike have agreed to judge — but will not actually be competing against each other. Instead they will be evaluated against some absolutes of UI, integration, navigation, etc. Not against each other. A kindler, gentler Shootout? I doubt it.

Thanks Mark. The KRI pieces are pretty impressive and I’m certain there’s much more to come. Have a great weekend!

Thanks Mark. This is very interesting and very well written. Much appreciated. And thanks for the links to the KNI white papers and Kutik’s article Kenexa Puts Its Pieces Together (which I had somehow missed!). Good stuff.
