Article Abstract:
Saying no to a job assignment means that the worker passes up on an opportunity that may advance his or her career. Employees who say yes to every assignment, on the other hand, may have the best opportunities for career advancement but also have the tendency to miss some of the most important events in life. The relation between work-life balance and career development is examined further.
