Course details

Assertiveness is the ability to communicate opinions, thoughts, needs, and feelings in a direct, honest, and appropriate manner. Assertiveness involves standing up for yourself in a way that does not offend or deny the rights of others. When you are assertive you have more control over your life and it is less likely that other people will take advantage of you.

This course is designed to assist individuals to distinguish between passive, aggressive and assertiveness styles, set goals for assertive behaviours, identify your personal rights, develop strategies for saying ‘no’ and dealing with criticism as well as dealing with other people’s anger.
