Assertiveness and Confidence Training
Confidence is often confused with aggression. Confident individuals aim to be neither passive nor aggressive when dealing with other people. Although everyone acts in a passive and aggressive way from time to time, colleagues feel threatened by an aggressive approach. Often an aggressive approach is misunderstood as a lack of self-confidence
