Developing Assertiveness
Free

Assertiveness is a skill regularly referred to in social and communication skills training. Being assertive means being able to stand up for your own or other people’s rights in a calm and positive way, without being either aggressive or passively accepting ‘wrong’. Assertive individuals are able to get their point across without upsetting others or becoming upset themselves.
Although everyone acts in passive and aggressive ways from time to time, such ways of responding often result from a lack of self-confidence and are, therefore, inappropriate ways of interacting with others. Here we examine the rights and responsibilities of assertive behaviour and aim to show how assertiveness can benefit you.
