Let's have a conversation

We all have moments when we find it difficult to speak up, say no or express what we really think. Whether it's setting boundaries, challenging someone else's opinion or making sure our voice is heard, being assertive isn't always easy.

Our practical half-day workshop, Building Your Assertiveness Skills, will help participants communicate with greater confidence, express themselves clearly and stand up for their own needs while respecting the rights and opinions of others.

  • Date: Wednesday 8 December 2026
  • Time: 2pm to 5pm
  • Where: online, via Zoom
  • Facilitator: Dominic Morris
  • Places: limited to 10 participants
  • Cost: £79 + VAT per person

We'll explore what assertiveness is and isn't, what stops us from being assertive, and how to utilise assertive language and set boundaries. Participants will leave with practical techniques to help them establish their needs and communicate effectively at work.

Using the SPB framework, participants will learn to:

  • Understand What Assertive Communication Is
  • Identify Behaviour on the Assertive Spectrum
  • How to Use Assertive Language
  • How to Set Boundaries
  • 5 Ways of Saying No
  • Creating a Rights Framework
  • How to Build a PDP / Assertiveness Plan

We keep the group to 10 so that everyone has time to contribute, ask questions and practise.
