Course Overview

Top
Being cooperative is great. But setting boundaries, saying 'no’ and standing up for yourself are just as important. This training course helps you to learn how to say ‘no’ in a way that's comfortable, confident and effective, without feeling guilty afterwards. You learn to distinguish between three basic positions: passive, assertive and aggressive.
