Is the lack of assertiveness keeping you from fulfilling your potential and reaching your goals? Is assertiveness a people skill and quality you would like to acquire to naturally attract people to respond to you positively?

Many of us do know that being assertive means having a greater sense of self-worth and confidence without being aggressive. However, we may not know what is involved in assertive interactions. In this programme, we will be exploring two aspects of assertive interactions, namely assertive curiosity and ambition.

After the workshop, you will be able to:

  • communicate effectively using assertive techniques
  • adopt assertive curiosity in learning things about other people or what other people think and maximise opportunity in business
  • avoid confrontation by adopting assertive thinking and optimise results for team success

Methodology

This is a highly interactive workshop with mini-lectures, small group discussions, presentations, workplace activities and video-clips. Each participant will complete a communication style quiz of himself/herself. The results will assist him/her to understand how they naturally interact with others and reduce the less effective interaction.
