Assertiveness is a valuable personal skill, which is essential for effective communication. An assertive individual has the power to command the respect of others, achieve personal and professional goals and fulfil his or her potential.


Course objective
This course will enable the participant to be more decisive, effective and confident while projecting a positive image in both personal and workplace relationships. Evaluation and judgement are often out of our control and subject to peer perception – which can greatly affect a person’s performance. Steps to assertiveness involve understanding the different styles of communication, identifying the candidate’s communication style, being clear about goals, and transforming weaknesses whilst developing strengths. Performance related tasks can often fail due to worry or insufficient skill.
