resist or object to a proposal · express disagreement politely
Ever been in a meeting where someone suggests something you *really* don't agree with? 😬 Instead of just saying 'No!', you can politely 'push back' to express your concerns or suggest an alternative. It's a key skill for professional discussions and showing you've thought critically about an idea. 💪
When would you most appropriately 'push back' on something? A. When you strongly agree with a new project proposal. B. When you want to politely disagree with a proposed plan or timeline. C. When you are asking for more work to be assigned to your team.
💡 **Pro Tip!** When you 'push back', it's usually constructive. You're not just saying no for the sake of it, but offering reasons or counter-proposals. For example, 'I'd like to push back on that deadline; I think we need more time for quality assurance.' It shows you're engaged, not just difficult! 😉
