Overview of the webinar
If you are a success-minded individual, assertiveness is a must-have skill. Every workplace has extroverted and introverted personalities. Assertiveness gives you the skills to deal with both types in a confident, calm self-assured manner.
If you lack assertiveness, extroverted, dominant individuals may make you their doormat. Have you experienced this? Avoid it by learning assertiveness skills.
Conflict is also inherent to working together. Conflict ranges from huge decisions such as where to build a new manufacturing plant or what software to buy to simple decisions like where we should go for lunch and what hotel we want to book for the holiday party. When you express your preferences assertively, people listen.
Assertiveness skills also help you resolve the conflict between team members. If you, as a manager fail to resolve conflicts, bad attitudes fester and a toxic environment is created. Morale slips in the organization and the best workers end up leaving for greener pastures on the other side of the fence.
As we progress through this webinar, you’ll gain communication, confrontation, and assertiveness skills that will give you confidence in your abilities to interface with and lead a variety of people. The only thing I can’t do for you on this topic is practice with you, for assertive language and thought processes take practice. So plan to find a buddy and work on the skills during lunch. You’ll be amazed at the results.

The proper amount of assertiveness can earn you respect, decrease confrontation, and increase the effectiveness of delegation. The definition of assertiveness is communicating your needs, wants, and opinions to others in a direct and tactful way than listening to and being receptive to their needs and opinions. Being assertive is not being confrontational or aggressive.
