We all want to effectively assert ourselves in our dealings with other people while also respecting the interests of others and being "cool." How to do it? By being assertive, you can better understand yourself and your relationships with others and prevent frustration. This practice-oriented workshop will help you improve your skills to act assertively, analyze the opposing party's necessary information, interests, and attitudes, create alternative negotiation techniques, and handle even tricky negotiation situations appropriately. You will know your natural negotiation strategy, which you tend to follow, and be able to identify situations when it is appropriate and when, on the contrary, you need to choose a different strategy, even in uncertain conditions, purposefully.
