Overview

Acting assertively does not mean that you act unfairly or without empathy.

The influence and power that assertiveness brings comes from self-assurance, not from bullying or intimidation. If you treat others fairly they will reciprocate and treat you fairly in return.

This will mean that you are viewed as a leader, and someone who people will enjoy working for and working with. Learn to communicate clearly and confidently on this one day assertiveness training Workshop.
