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 communicate assertively because it will show that you are a good communicator to others, and they will be willing to talk to you. Another reason is that the person who you're talking to knows that they can't push you around and take advantage of you. |
