Say No Clearly. Stay Kind. Keep Connection.
Saying “no” is one of the hardest communication skills to master—especially when you care about relationships and reputation. Too often, we overcommit, feel resentful, or avoid the conversation altogether.
In this focused, practical 30-minute mini-workshop, Dan Kaplan shows you how to use the DiSC model to decline requests in ways that preserve trust and professionalism.
You’ll learn how each DiSC style responds to rejection, what they need to hear to stay open, and how to frame your “no” so it feels respectful, not rejecting.
Because sometimes protecting your priorities is the most professional thing you can do.
