Aggression is what you resort to if you don’t want to be ‘passive’ any longer but don’t know how to act assertively. It’s counter-productive in the long term because even if you get what you want this time, people are more likely to resist you in the future. Far better to find the middle ground of ‘
DurationConfidence and assertiveness?
What’s the difference?
Brutally put, confidence is how you feel and assertive is how you act. Because it’s easier to act assertively if you’re feeling confident there is obviously an overlap but there are differences too. Our course looks at both - so that you’ll start to develop long term confidence and then lean how to act assertively even if you’re necessarily feeling confident.
We can also show you the tool actors, dancers and athletes use to control their nerves when they’re under huge, huge pressure!
Can you learn confidence?
Yes, of course you can - it’s just easier for some people than others. Fortunately there are tools that work for almost anyone when they’re applied correctly.
And what about being aggressive or assertive?
Aggression is what you resort to if you don’t want to be ‘passive’ any longer but don’t know how to act assertively. It’s counter-productive in the long term because even if you get what you want this time, people are more likely to resist you in the future. Far better to find the middle ground of ‘assertiveness’ where you are more likely to get what you need but without putting everyone else’s back up.
Sounds simple - but like many simple things that doesn’t automatically mean it’s easy. The tools are out there and we’ll teach you them, but you’ve got to pracice them, of course!
How we work
We're not what we call WIKI-trainers - What I Know Is - we're trainers with a background in research.
The problem with WIKI-trainers is that what works for them might not work for you. That's why we use research - to make sure that everything we say, everything we do, is based upon the best possible, validated evidence.
That means we explain the ideas behind what we're talking about. And that means our clients can take their learning into varied or even unfamiliar situations, applying what they learn with us, not just following off-the-shelf formulae.
It's better training and it's better value for money.
Our training style
Just because we've got over two and a half decades of research experience at universities backing us up doesn't mean we're dull.
We also have performance backgrounds - which means our training is as engaging as it is robust. To top it all off, we've also got applied management and leadership experience. We can walk the walk, as well as talk the talk.
We're so sure that we can help our clients that if, at the end of training day, people on our courses don't think it's been worthwhile, we won't charge for it.
Us and society
We believe in giving back, not just making money. That means we have a clearly developed set of environmental guidelines, and what we call our 13% policy. This means that for every day of training we deliver, we put an hour (about 13% of a day's work) into our 'goodwill bank'.
That goodwill bank can be called upon by charities and other not-for-profit organisations to fund some free training.
