Finding the win-win every time

One of my favourite things to do is run a training course, specifically on building confidence and assertiveness skills. It’s something I’ve been doing for years and it still surprises me how much I enjoy it, as I still consider myself to be a little bit shy and quiet – certainly not a natural extrovert. When I talk to people about becoming more confident and assertiveness, many are afraid of being brash, loud and bolshie. Yet true assertiveness and confidence can be very quiet states, not shouty and mulish at all. Assertiveness is not about you winning, but it is about finding a win-win situation. It’s a real skill to navigate a true compromise that takes everyone’s needs into consideration. And it is possible to be assertive while still being quiet.

I’ll be running the course on building confidence and assertiveness skills in June in Berkshire. Let me know if you’re interested and would like to know more.
