1 Day Assertiveness for Success in the Workplace

Assertiveness is a critical trait for supervisors, managers, and anyone with authority over others. Assertiveness is simply the ability to stand up for yourself without stepping on anyone else’s toes. It is the ability to ask for what you want, to say “no” to protect your time and resources, and to deliver messages that might make others uncomfortable but nevertheless need to be said. Those who can assert themselves communicate more confidently and clearly, enjoy more fulfilling relationships with others, and are more effective at work.

While assertive people do get ahead in life, assertiveness is not an inborn personality trait. Fortunately, anyone can develop assertive skills and behaviors that will bring success in the workplace—for themselves and their organization.
