This one-day course will enhance participants’ confidence, ability to be assertive and communicate with authority and impact in a professional capacity.
The purpose of assertiveness is to achieve and maintain effective communications within personal, professional and structural contexts.
This course will explore different behavioural characteristics and their impact on communications and professional relationships.
Contexts within which assertiveness can become an ‘issue’ will be examined, techniques and strategies for addressing these will be tested and critiqued.
All learning will be underpinned by explanatory insights into behavioural linguistics and the social use of language.
- How to recognise non-assertive behaviours in themselves and others
- Strategies and techniques to respond to and manage non-assertive behaviours
- Theoretical insights which underpin approaches to managing effective professional communications
- Techniques for self-critique to support continuous development
