Assertiveness for Women

Course overview

What You Will Learn

• To identify assertive and non‑assertive behaviour
• To analyse their current behaviour patterns
• To deal with conflict constructively
• To learn and practice a range of techniques of assertive communication
• To explore situations where it is difficult to behave assertively, and to develop strategies and skills to handle them more effectively
