About

It's not unusual to feel discomfort, resentment, guilt or inadequacy when someone (a manager or co-worker) asks you to do something that is either not your responsibility or just feels too hard given your skills. In this course you will learn to set boundaries.

When too much is being asked of you, it's time to set boundaries. Psychologist Peter Quarry recommends deciding on what is important for you, communicating and negotiating a solution, and reminding those who cross boundaries.

Decide what is important for you to determine your availability;
Communicate clearly and gain agreement;
Negotiate a solution rather than saying 'no';
Deal with anyone crossing your boundaries;
Stop rewarding disrespectful behavior;
