Strengthen your leadership ability and image by learning essential assertiveness skills.

Now and then, you're going to overreact or underreact. You'll blurt out something that you wish you hadn't or hurt someone whose opinion you value. Still, the person with good assertiveness skills usually sends the right signals and gets the right responses. With assertiveness training, women can learn how to better handle nearly any situation that comes up-without seeming shy or pushy. Assertiveness skills for women are vital for getting things done, getting what you want, and commanding respect.

This course is assertiveness training for women at its best. As you learn, practice, and refine fundamental assertiveness skills, you'll also share your concerns with other women executives in a comfortable and supportive learning environment.
