| Assertive Communiction |
| |
| Goal: |
Assertive communication lies somewhere in-between passive and aggressive communication. Like being passive or aggressive, assertive communication is a learned skill. A freedom that gives us the skill to say, this is what I think, I feel, I need, I want and am willing to do.
This session will provide education in the role of self-protection as it relates to communication and conflict skills. Participants will practice skills in assertiveness, voice projection and projecting confident body posture. Education concerning the fight or flight stress response as it relates to our communication skills will also be addressed. |
