UNLEASH THE POWER OF 'NO' - Erie Day of Code

One of the first words we learn as children is “NO”. Yet, somewhere between learning our A-B-Cs and launching our careers as technologists, we forget about the power that NO holds. “NO” is one word that should be prominently featured in every technologist’s lexicon. As technologists, we’re fortunate to possess skills that are in high demand.

Demand is often so high that we’re mistaken for bottomless wells of time and energy that can be continuously tapped. There comes a point where we - and our leaders, advocating on our behalf - must unleash our power of saying NO: NO to that last tweak, NO to that final copy change, or NO to the brand new feature that just fell out of the sky and on to our backlog.
