Whatever your role in the workplace, being heard, being noticed for the right reasons and being able to get your point across successfully are key skills for everyone to have.
Being assertive is a skill that can be learned. Developing assertiveness starts with an understanding of who you are, and the reasons you react the way you do. When you have skills and confidence, you become more comfortable having discussions, challenging decisions and standing up for yourself.
This one-day workshop focuses on giving you the knowledge and tools to help you make an impact in a positive way. By improving your communication skills you will increase your confidence and learn how and why being assertive is an asset.
