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: If you communicate aggressively nobody will listen and see you as a mean person and if you communicate passively nobody will listen either because you are just sucking up to them. You should communicate assertively so people hear you and you get your point across with clear communication and people will listen. |
