INTRODUCTION TO ASSERTIVENESS SKILLS

Assertiveness is an ideal state of being, regardless of any situation. Your balanced actions leave others free to be themselves, without prejudicing others. However, it is a journey and not a destination.

The key skills are; being honest without being personal, being non-negotiable, being proactive, setting boundaries, balancing your body language, calmly repeating your point of view, diffusing personal attack, acknowledging mistakes, asking questions for more information, and identifying with others.
As with any skill, practice is the key.

OUTCOMES:

• Get on better with self
• Get on better with others
• A balanced state of being
