Essay: When you choose to be assertive, you won't always get everything you want. With that in mind, why should you still choose to communicate assertively? Provide two reasons.
Student Answer: You should still choose to communicate assertively because that’s what is right, you always want to approach a situation in a calm manner instead of being passive or aggressive. It’s difficult not to be but you wouldn’t want to make a situation worse. You want to make sure that you explain yourself so that they can try and understand. |
