Set Boundaries Without Sounding Difficult
Know what to say when something at work doesn’t feel right.
Setting a boundary at work can feel awkward.
You don’t want to sound rude. You don’t want to be labelled difficult. But you also don’t want to keep saying yes, stay silent or agree to something you’re uncomfortable with.
This free cheat sheet gives you 10 calm, professional phrases you can use when you need to push back without turning the conversation into a confrontation.
Inside you’ll find phrases for situations like:
- Being given several “urgent” tasks at once
- Being pressured to answer or agree on the spot
- Being contacted outside your working hours
- Dealing with inappropriate comments or uncomfortable conversations
- Being pushed to rush work or accept unrealistic expectations
- Avoiding gossip and workplace politics
- Setting boundaries around your time, workload and personal space
For every phrase, I’ll show you when to use it, an example of how it might come up at work, and why the wording works.
You don’t need to become confrontational. You just need better language for the moment.
