What is assertiveness? It may be easier to say what it is not. It is not aggressiveness, selfishness, bossiness, clever techniques, or manipulation. Why bother learning to be assertive? Being assertive improves a person’s chances of getting what they want; it reduces frustration; and it enables you to deal with colleagues, suppliers and customers more effectively.

Most meetings these days are held informally, with possibly a regular ‘chair’, but no other formal roles. Taking the minutes, or ‘notes’ as they are usually called, is often considered as an easy job, that can be done by anyone present, whether or not they have any training, or even whether they understand the content and background of the topics under discussion!
This often results in high anxiety for the note-taker, as he/she attempts to get it all down, and then spends hours trying to work out how to reduce it to a coherent readable record. This course is designed to help the note-taker prevent these problems and to produce a concise and action-orientated record of a meeting in a time-efficient way.

Being a manager or supervisor means taking responsibility for the performance of all your team. Too often poor individual behaviour or attitude can derail a successful team and have a significant impact on productivity. This course helps managers to find the right words to challenge poor behaviour or attitude before the situation grows worse and more formal processes are required.
