Assertiveness Training Course

By communicating assertively, you can feel confident and gain the respect of your colleagues and friends. Assertive communication involves speaking your mind and expressing your point in a constructive manner.

People who are assertive tend to have less stress and conflict in their career and personal life. They can influence people and can get their needs met more easily.

1. I provide quick and accurate responses to customer queries.
2. When I do not understand something, I ask for clarification.
3. I look directly at the person I am talking to.
4. I have an assertive body language.
5. I am clear and specific when expressing my point of view.
6. I consciously practice assertive behaviour in problem situations.
7. I use verbal and non-verbal communication skills to be assertive.
8. I recognise passive, assertive and aggressive behaviours in others.
9. I am comfortable with saying ‘NO’ with confidence.
10. I am calm and controlled and do not lose my temper.
11. I ask for help without feeling guilty or bad about it.
12. I deal with difficult people and situations effectively.
13. I do not get stressed in difficult situations.
14. I can effectively manage people who are angry or aggressive.
15. I ask for and provide constructive feedback.
16. I negotiate assertively with colleagues / customers / suppliers.
17. I respect the rights and opinions of other people.
