Communicating Assertively
Assertiveness is a philosophy and a technique of communication. It involves getting a deeper understanding of what goes on when we interact with others, particularly when there is an element of conflict present.
Assertiveness does not necessarily mean that you get your way all the time. It does mean being able to assert one’s beliefs and ideas, increasing the chances of getting to the best solution, with everyone's self-esteem in tact.
Participants will discover the root cause of their individual assertion obstacles and ways to use different approaches to achieve their assertion goals. Participants will discover ways that they as individuals might need to adapt their style to communicate assertively with different people.
