Some of the assertiveness skills topics we can include in a tailored program
Assertive Leadership training
Assertive Leadership finds the right balance between a dominating and passive leadership style.
Leaders with aggressive behaviours believe they need to project strength, and they do this by communicating passionately and forcefully. As a result, their employees and co-workers can sometimes find them difficult to cooperate with. Colleagues may also have a hard time speaking freely around aggressive leaders, which can lead to limited efficiency, reduced creativity and lowered job satisfaction.
Passive leaders, on the other hand, often lack control over their teams. Communication between co-workers may be frustrating or difficult to manage, and efficiency may drop as employees fail to prioritise content delivery or task completion. The result is a workforce that runs itself, creating chaos and confusion, rather than a team organised under one assertive leader.
Our assertiveness skills training program for leaders demonstrates to participants that each approach has inherent value. To find the balance between leadership styles, participants are encouraged to identify and analyse the impact they have on others, empowering them to relate more effectively to co-workers. The result is a highly personalised leadership style that balances assertive and passive approaches to create benefits for any workplace.
Our tailored program typically includes:
- Identifying aggressive leadership communication.
- Developing empathy.
- Avoiding passive leadership styles.
- Establishing an appropriate balance.
- Prioritising issue identification over emotions.
- Finding solutions.
- Assertive body language.
- Using tone for the desired result.
- Dealing with criticism.
- Communicating with confidence and influence.
Confidence and Self-Esteem training
Confidence and self-esteem are the basis for assertiveness skills training. Without these foundational elements, participants won’t feel empowered to utilise the tools and techniques offered for assertive communication, resulting in missed opportunities and uncomfortable situations.
This program explores how and why feelings of inadequacy, social anxiety or aggression may exist. Participants build emotional intelligence, learning how to courageously and assertively tackle challenges by reflecting on their own behaviours, thought processes and habits.
We tailor this variation of the assertiveness skills training program for in-house delivery. We also provide one-on-one coaching assistance. A Confidence and Self-Esteem training program would typically include:
- Understanding the basis for self confidence.
- What affects self-esteem.
- Re-framing techniques.
- Creating positive thinking patterns.
- Taking control of emotions.
- Avoiding the resentment cycle.
- Controlling self-talk.
- Assertively showing a confident and positive self.
