Publisher Description:

All of us can think of times when we know we should speak up, but we don’t. When we feel like we’re being taken advantage of, but we just accept it. Later, we kick ourselves, thinking: “If only I would have said something!”

If this sounds like you, look no further! This book serves as a complete guide to understanding assertiveness and becoming more assertive in your own life. Being able to assert yourself and communicate effectively is key to building great relationships. This book takes an engaging look at how to develop confidence and communication skills to ensure positive outcomes from your interactions with others.

When we find ourselves under pressure or in confrontational situations, we may react aggressively or back down and say nothing. Neither approach is likely to result in a positive outcome, and we’re likely to come away from the situation wishing we’d handled things differently. Failure to assert ourselves and communicate clearly can negatively impact our interactions with friends, family, and colleagues, and is likely to affect our personal effectiveness and productivity as well.

Many people think that being assertive is only linked to saying "No". That is not true. The truth is that assertiveness is the ability to behave and communicate with others firmly and confidently. Learning how to be more assertive can massively improve your relationships and your overall sense of self-confidence. When you can express yourself assertively and speak up for yourself, other people will respect you more. Even more importantly, you will respect yourself more.

Using practical exercises and techniques, we will explore how to stand up for what you believe in, ask for what you want, and say no to what you don’t want in a way that’s confident, calm, and respectful. This book will also show you how to increase your self-confidence and self-worth.

This book is for:

People who would like to communicate with confidence and charisma
Emerging leaders who want to communicate more clearly and confidently.
Passive communicators who want to speak more directly and honestly.
People who have difficulty protecting their time, priorities, and goals.
People who need to set stronger boundaries.
