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 might want to communicate assertively because then people will know you are respectable and up-front about your feelings, wants, and needs. It also helps so that people will correct certain stuff around you because you clearly communicate the stuff you want or feel. |
