Pre-course preparation

For some people assertiveness comes easy and for others, it takes time and effort so much so that you become passive. When you don't assert yourself, you find that people are not keen to your ideas and needs, and this can be frustrating. Learning assertive skills will leave you feeling confident and capable to meet daily challenging situations and handle difficulty with ease. This highly effective workshop will enable delegates to learn psychological techniques on being assertive and standing your ground without offending anyone.
