Assertion means standing up for what you want. Stating your needs clearly. It means expressing opposition. It means confrontation and it takes courage. Some find it harder than others because of their natural easy-going style and therefore more practice
is required. However, the aim should not be just to gain a win. The aim should be to solve the problem and get the best result. Assertion should not be synonymous with aggression because aggressive people adopt a 'I win - you lose' mentality to achieve their
objectives.
Assertiveness does not come naturally to all because we have all learned passive behaviors to stave off confrontational situations. However, these behaviors can be unlearned and assertive behavior used to produce results that benefit both parties can
be learned.
Assertiveness training courses can help participants increase work effectiveness and productivity, achieve greater control of their daily activities and overcome work stressors.
