In "The Assertiveness Workbook", Dr. Randy J. Paterson combines science and clinical experience to create the definitive guide for overcoming assertiveness problems. Blending wisdom, wit, and compassions, this sophisticated yet highly readable volume shows people how to improve their assertiveness in a structured, step-by-step fashion. It is essential reading for anyone wanting to improve their assertiveness, and for therapists treating assertiveness problems."

Format:Paperback
Very good book, informative, helpful excercises, perhaps the only slight negative is that it is a little hard going, but if you are training people to be more assertive, it is a good tool to have. Make sure you give yourself time to read through it before you decide how you want to do the exercises. I found it useful and helpful in my field of training.

I have been on various courses in my working life and assertiveness often comes up. We get a quick run down of "I have the right to say no... change my mind ... ask for more time" etc. This book, on the other hand is the first really thorough walk-thu of what skills you need to practice and how to use them. In my job as workplace counsellor, I recommend it regularly. People need assertiveness in the worplace, and nearly all of us could benefit from revisiting these ideas.
