THE REAL SOLUTION
ASSERTIVENESS WORKBOOK
Most people can be assertive in some situations, and yet be ineffectual
in others. The Real Solution Assertiveness Workbook expands the number of situations in
which you can choose to be assertive. When a person is passive, opportunities are lost and
unpleasant situations are tolerated. In time, bad feelings can build to a point where one
more event can trigger an explosion of resentment that in turn provokes criticism or
rejection. Graduated homework assignments allow participants to apply their newly acquired
skills. The Real Solution Assertiveness Workbook emphasizes the building of assertiveness
skills, using model presentation, rehearsal, positive feedback, prompting, and homework
assignments. This Workbook is designed for those who are unable to participate in The
Assertiveness Individual Program.
"The Assertiveness Workbook helped me solve
my problems at work with my boss and I'm feeling like I'm really going to succeed now. I
can't believe how easy it was." Carol T., Fremont, CA.
