How do you handle saying no to a LinkedIn recommendation?

September 17, 2009

I posted this tweet recently trying to get some help from my expert tweeps:
Here are some of the responses I received:
“Ignore it. ”
“Just say no!”
“I have ignored requests from persons I was less than happy to recommend. Nothing nice to say, say nothing!”
“I shan’t do the requested recommendation.”
