    If possible, use data to make your point. IE: if you know how many projects/size of projects you've been doing in the past, you are in good position to push back when future demands exceed that figure. Make it their responsibility to prioritize, or add more resources.

    If you don't have that data, take some time and gather it. Otherwise you're stuck talking about your feelings, and it's not all that convincing.

    • Agreed - having data is the best way to justify workload and staffing.bulletfactory
    • Good point. I believe the project tracking software we use can spit something out - requests, projects completed, hours etc.duckseason
