About

SWITCH ON ASSERTIVENESS is aimed at helping everyone communicate effectively and assertively, respecting other people’s rights and their own rights.

It is ideal for communication and service skills training, as well as bullying and harassment prevention programs. It can be used for induction, team building and even management development. It will help those who are not assertive to stand up for themselves and their rights.

SWITCH ON ASSERTIVENESS is ideal for training seminars, short meetings, conferences, workshops and for one on one motivational coaching or self-development online.

The SWITCH ON ASSERTIVENESS program has four segments:

Segment 1 covers aggression and the need to be assertive not aggressive

Segment 2 explores overcoming feeling inadequate and non-assertive

Segment 3 helps everyone communicate effectively and respect his or her needs

Segment 4 covers skills for standing up and not giving in.

 

Managers and trainers can use the content and activity sheets to help their people ‘audit’ their negative messages and develop and sustain positive messages and assertive attitudes and behaviors.
