Assertiveness is something completely different from aggressiveness, although the inability to assert oneself can cause feelings of failure and anger. And assertiveness is something that causes difficulties for many of us. Sometimes we prefer to avoid conflict of any kind, and may find it difficult to challenge others in a clearly thought-out way. It may be easier to resort to overt aggression, sarcasm or passive distance.

Assertiveness training using the Serious Business Game is designed to help you interact more effectively with colleagues, managers, customers and everyone else you come into contact with. In a practical and supportive environment, you can practice techniques and methods that will have a direct impact on your work and life.

The advantages of assertiveness

One of the main advantages of positive assertiveness is that it can help you to become more confident as you gain a better understanding of who you are and the value you give to others.

Assertiveness offers a number of other advantages that can help you both at work and in other areas of life. Generally assertive people:

Are excellent leaders. They achieve common goals by treating people with fairness and respect, and in return are treated by others in the same way.
Are personalities with whom one would like to work together and who are respected in a common dialogue.
Negotiate successful “win-win” solutions. You are able to recognize the value of your counterpart’s position and can quickly find common ground with him.
They are better decision makers and problem solvers. They feel empowered to do whatever is necessary to find the best solution to the problems they encounter.
They are courageous and motivated. You are self-confident and resilient, you feel resistant if things do not go as planned or as expected.

What is CHRISTMAS’s focus group?

CHRISTMAS is aimed at all people, employees, who want to improve their interpersonal relationships by defending their interests and asserting their opinions. Both in their personal and professional lives.

Assertiveness is based on balance. It requires being open about one’s wishes and needs, while at the same time considering the rights, needs and wishes of others. If you are assertive, you are self-confident and draw strength from this to communicate your point of view firmly, fairly and with empathy.
