What Does Assertive Communication Sound Like 👍

Assertive communication is the ability to stand up for our own needs, rights, and boundaries while respecting the rights and opinions of others. Here is what assertive communication sounds like:

"It seems like we disagree on this. Let's find a solution that will work for us both."
"Thank you for thinking of me, but I am going to decline your request this time."
"I feel upset when..."
"I respect your opinion on this, but I prefer to make my own decision."
"I would love to help, but I have a lot of work to complete today. I hope you are able to find someone else to assist you though."
"This is what works best for me. Would that work for you?"
