Course Description
Being able to assert yourself and communicate effectively is key to building good working relationships. This course 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 we may 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 have a negative impact on our interactions with colleagues, clients and customers and is likely to affect our personal effectiveness and productivity as well.
Assert yourself is an engaging, interactive learning experience that helps you to develop the skills and confidence you need to ensure that your interactions with others are positive, respectful and productive.

it would have been good to see the role play from a none assertive scene and replaying the scene after applying assertive behavior

It illustrated the most effective way to communicate.

I feel as though this course is helping me verbalize a concern to others especially when the other person is being highly emotional.

I think everyone in the world should do this course
By Julie-Sofie Weye Hemdorff on 4/19/2020
Would work better with some quiz-like questions in the sections to refresh the sections + maybe some small assignments like write down theoretical examples or own experience (to yourself)
By Nityanand Kumar on 3/27/2020
Course on Assertiveness/Assert yourself is well designed and I believe it would be really helpful for making win-win communication with others especially within organisation, however practice of the learnt concept is vitally important. Thanks
By Edgar Flores on 2/18/2020
This a great course of getting started to learn about assertiveness. I would recommend it to anyone that wants to get a good introduction on how assertiveness can improve your life.
By Maxine Riley on 2/6/2020
I think some more interactive work would be useful
