Develop your Assertiveness 3 Nov 2003

By Barbara Lockley

Format:Paperback

As a beginner (and currently attending an assertiveness class) to the art of being assertive I have found this book invaluable and easy to read. It's a basic introduction to the essential techniques of being assertive but it also forces you to probe your own insecurities as to why you are non-assertive in the first place. With simple exercises you can turn your negative thinking into positive, of course time and practice is what is essentially required, but at least you're armed with the knowledge of what to do. For anyone who's fed up with feeling like the proverbial doormat and constantly frustrated with being too passive, this book is a great step in the right direction.

Develop Your Assertiveness (Creating Success) 4 Sep 2003

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

I found the book to be quite useful. A good "pick up book" to refer to every now and again. I have to say though, it didn't really differ too much from many other assertiveness manuals I have read.

A little disappointing 16 April 2009

By Vicky B

Format:Paperback

Not being an expert in these types of self-help/professional working aids, I was expecting a bit more from this book. For the average lay person who just wants a few tips or pointers it is ok although not totally helpful. I thought the book focused more on the point of view of Managers and Employers and in doing so it does little to benefit an employee who may be coming across a few difficult situations or difficult people at work.

I didn't give this book the credit it deserved

I must admit that when I first read this book I wasn't particularly taken by it. The style seemed to engender the cold, clinical and pragmatic philosophy of the "Keep Calm and... Read more
