In the organizer's words:

Weekend seminar

If you want to realize your own ideas and interests in your professional life, you need assertiveness. In this practice-oriented course, you will learn how to position yourself clearly without putting a lasting strain on relationships and cooperation. You will achieve this by developing a constructive attitude towards yourself and others, having clear goals in mind and using powerful communication strategies. At every meeting, project or team meeting, the cards are dealt anew. To make sure you don't get lost, you don't just have to temporarily put aside your need for harmony and sympathy. It helps to recognize group structures and use them to your advantage as well as to see through manipulative games.

Topics:

• Factors of personal assertiveness
• Self-image and self-esteem as a path to success
• Recognizing harmony traps, removing blockages
• The critical discussion: taking a stand, setting boundaries
• The persuasion talk: Getting others on board
• Showing backbone and developing personal bite
• Maintaining confidence even in pressure situations
• Welcome to the monkey rock: recognizing games
• Dealing with status and hierarchy: top dogs & co.
• Confident body language
