Why You Say Yes When You Shouldn't — And How To Say No When It Matters Most | Dr. Sunita Sah

Why You Say Yes When You Shouldn't — And How To Say No When It Matters Most | Dr. Sunita Sah

A conversation with a Cornell professor who is attempting to rebrand the concept of defiance.

Dr. Sunita Sah started her career as a physician but then switched over to organizational psychology. At Cornell, she conducts research on influence, authority, compliance, and defiance. She is the author of Defy: The Power of No in a World That Demands Yes.

In this episode we talk about:

  • How Dr. Sah defines defiance
  • The costs of compliance
  • The five stages of defiance
  • How to make defiance a practice
  • The upside of tension
  • The importance of knowing your values — how to articulate them, and how this relates to our biology, specifically our hormones
  • The gender components of defiance
