SUMMARY:Assertiveness – 1-day Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Overview: \nHave you ever been in a situation\, perhaps at a business meeting\, where you wanted to say something\, but you didn’t or couldn’t? Or perhaps you have lost your temper or got upset and regretted it afterwards? These are a couple of examples of where assertive communication would have helped. \nAssertion involves standing up for personal rights and expressing thoughts\, feelings and beliefs in direct\, honest\, and appropriate way that do not violate another person’s rights. The basic message in assertion is: ‘This is what I think. This is what I feel. This is how I see the situation.’ This message is said without domination\, humiliating or degrading the other person. \nAssertion involves respect\, not deference. Two types of respect are involved in assertion: respect for oneself (expressing one’s needs and defining one’s rights) as well as respect for the other person’s needs and rights. \nThis workshop is about helping you recognise your own type of behaviour and how you come across to others. It will help you to identify situations in which you would like to be less aggressive or less passive and learn how to be assertive in these situations. \nThis training course will show you how to overcome your natural\, instinctive behaviour in situations and learn more effective responses. \n  \nWho should attend? \nThis course is designed for people who wish to develop their skills in communicating more assertively and confidently. \n  \nObjectives: \n\nIdentify assertive\, aggressive\, and passive behaviour in others\nIdentify your own behaviour\nIdentify and use a variety of assertive techniques\n\n  \n  \nWhat you will learn: \n\nWhat are assertive\, aggressive and passive behaviours?\nWhat affect these behaviours have on you and others?\nUnderstanding our rights and responsibilities\nRecognising an assertive response\nThree steps to assertive behaviour\nSaying ‘no’ without feeling guilty\nComparing constructive criticism and destructive criticism\nDealing with criticism assertively\n\n  \nDuration: 1 Day \nWe can deliver training onsite at your workplace or via virtual classrooms if preferred.
