From the Back Cover
"This book is practical, accessible, and with all its reports of major and minor personal triumphs, downright inspirational."
-Chicago Tribune
Since the 1970s, women have achieved successes and broken barriers on many fronts. Yet, they still can experience conflicts between how they would like to present themselves and how they can operate effectively in a world with lingering societal expectations that favor women as the passive, compliant gender.
As a result, women play submissive games that allow them to manipulate a person's emotions without the risk of seeming aggressive, a tactic that can be detrimental to careers and personal relationships. This primer guides the reader step by step, providing the clues to recognize this behavior and the skills to overcome it. Assertive training techniques will teach you how to:
"Recognize how anxiety causes your assertiveness problems
"Set your priorities
"Develop your own assertive skills
"Combat your irrational beliefs
"Say no without feeling guilty
