Being Assertive

The use of assertiveness skills in the workplace is varied and unlimited. How many times have you seen people fail to contribute a great idea because they're reluctant to speak up? Or miss a chance to resolve an interpersonal challenge because they're afraid to deal with conflict ? 

Talented people who don't master the art of communicating assertively can derail themselves from a successful career. By contrast, those who know how to express themselves appropriately can deal more confidently and effectively with a wide variety of people and business situations. 

The Being Assertive Training Video demonstrates the following benefits to having a workplace where assertiveness is valued:

• Every problem can be discussed openly.
• Because people are direct, communication becomes clearer and fewer miscommunications occur.
• Less time is spent gossiping and complaining.
• People speak up and say what's on their mind without fear of censure or ridicule.
