Target Audience

Leaders/managers/supervisors/team leads, health/human service professionals, anyone aspiring to develop critical leadership skills needed at every level.

Description

Now and then you’re going to overreact or underreact. You’ll blurt out something that you wish you hadn’t, hurt someone whose opinion you value. The person with effective assertiveness skills sends the right signals and gets the right responses. With assertiveness training, women can learn how to better handle just about any situation that comes up — without seeming either shy or pushy. Assertiveness skills for women are vital for getting things done, getting what you want, commanding respect, and becoming an influential leader.
