What is Effective and Assertive Communication?

April 23, 2024 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Free

Part Five of 6-week Series

We are offering a six-week, in-person women’s empowerment group titled ‘Trending Topics: For Today’s Women’, with the fifth topic being ‘What is Effective and Assertive Communication?‘.

Have you ever tried yelling to get your point across? There is a good chance that it felt good, but perhaps did not solve the problem. The reason is that raising our voices and repeating the same things over and over are not as effective as they may seem. When you join this discussion, you will learn effective tools that will help you get your point across in meaningful ways.

You are invited to attend any or all of the sessions and feel free to bring your lunch. There is no charge for the meetings, and beverages will be provided.
