STAND AND DELIVER - learning and development

 

Assertiveness & Confidence Building
Who Should Attend
Anyone who would like to improve their self confidence, constructive communication skills or deal more confidently with difficult people or situations.
Overview
This workshop explores the concept and practice of assertiveness in comparison with other, less constructive behaviours. By gaining a thorough understanding of what assertiveness means, and what it doesn't, participants learn how to apply assertive thinking and behaviours which benefit themselves and enhance their relationships with others around them.

Participants have the opportunity to practise the skills in a relaxed and informal way with expert coaching and guidance from the trainer and feedback from other participants. Delegate numbers are limited to ensure everyone has maximum opportunities to receive assistance and coaching from the trainer.
Outcomes
At the end of this training programme participants will be able to:

Understand the differences between Assertive, Aggressive and Passive behaviour and choose their own response when faced with each.
Negotiate solutions to problems with others more effectively by using a range of assertiveness techniques.
Constructively handle criticism and conflict.
Understand more about behaviour and motivation and how to cope with challenging situations and people.
