Management-Assertiveness Skills
This workshop is designed to help participants improve their interactions with other people in their workplace or at home. This workshop gives participants the opportunity to improve the critical communication skills of listening, asking questions and being aware of non-verbal messages. This workshop can also help participants who are struggling to find that middle ground between being too aggressive and too passive. An assertive person is confident and direct in dealing with others. Assertive communications promote fairness and equality in human interactions, based on a positive sense of respect for self and others. It is the direct communication of a person’s needs, wants, and opinions without punishing, threatening, or putting down another person. Assertive behavior involves three categories of skills; self-affirmation, expressing positive feelings, and expressing negative feelings. Each will be explored during this course
