Training: Assertiveness and defense against manipulation
Training versions:
online | stationary | mix | closed: Warsaw/Poland
Imagine that you can easily say what you think and, in addition, you use a form that is constructive, building relationships, even when you refuse and still achieve your goals. Do you like this vision? This is what it means to be assertive.
And how do you do being assertive? Here's how we do it: you build internal strategies for self-confidence and courage, you learn 31 assertiveness techniques, you practice, you see that the results are great, so you like it and continue being assertive.
The key is to get the techniques in a package with appropriate thinking strategies, otherwise you will not have the courage and confidence to use the techniques.

Regardless of what kind of marketing a training company does - the number and content of opinions and their credibility absolutely verify the quality of the training! Read the opinions of our participants about assertiveness training and other training - they are the best proof of what you can expect. We have plenty of them (and that says something...), signed with full names and companies.
Very good assertiveness training, which helped me understand my own built-in obstacles that make my work and life difficult. Practical exercises and time to think allowed for self-reflection and drawing conclusions. I would highly recommend.
The assertiveness workshops were prepared very professionally. Once again, full admiration for the 4GROW company. After the training, you will learn simple techniques that are useful in everyday situations.
Arguments for the boss
It is thanks to assertive employees that the company has a chance to achieve its business goals
effectively, in an atmosphere of cooperation, partnership and respect!
We especially recommend strengthening assertiveness to employees who:
- cooperate with others
- manage the team
- have contact with clients or contractors
An employee without an assertive attitude:
- is afraid to express their recommendations, which may deprive the company of the most effective solutions
- is prone to giving in to pressure from contractors, clients and co-workers
- has difficulty performing the tasks entrusted to him on time because he takes on the responsibilities of other co-workers, contractors or subordinates or carries them out on time, at the expense of working overtime, resulting in frustration and motivational burnout
- may react emotionally to the feedback received
- may avoid contact and feel dissatisfied with work
Assertive employee:
- expresses his/her opinion and recommends solutions to problems
- resolves conflicts, undertakes difficult conversations and does not run away from problems
- effectively enforces the execution of instructions, fulfillment of contract terms, etc.
- Is able to defend the company's interests and does not give in to attempts to exert influence
- accepts feedback as a necessary improvement process
- communicates the needs of themselves, the team and the entire organization
- is more effective and self-confident
Everything your boss needs to decide on your enrollment. Present the package of benefits for the company resulting from your participation, and we will meet at a training session soon! :)

Do you want to learn new skills from the best trainers?
Test our assertiveness during the training!
Assertiveness training – who will benefit from it?
A colleague talks in an open space so loudly that it drowns out your thoughts / your partner burdens you with most of the responsibilities / your boss humiliates you in the presence of your colleagues... Usually you are unable to react in such situations, and even when you do, it does not bring the expected result? Do you think: "If only I had similar courage, self-confidence and assertiveness..."? / "I finally have to sign up for this assertiveness training."
Are you convinced that some people have an easy time creating a reality consistent with their own expectations and needs, while others unfortunately have to adapt to this reality?
STOP!
The first and most important thing you will learn during assertiveness training is that assertiveness is not a personality or temperament trait, but a skill that EVERYONE can learn. Some people acquired them earlier, for example in the process of upbringing, but this does not mean that you cannot develop them to an equal or even greater extent!
It's worth starting by becoming aware of your own limits. The right of others to "wave their fists" ends when your comfort is violated. However, to protect your own boundaries, you must first become aware of them and sometimes even set them again. A good place for this may be assertiveness training. In everyday life, we rarely have the opportunity or motivation to think about what and to whom we want to allow and what bothers us.
The next important step during training: assertiveness is identifying and modifying current reactions. When asked, threatened or shouted, many people instinctively agree, compromise, do not say what they really think... These are natural reactions resulting from the fear of refusal, rejection, escalation of the problem, loss of certain benefits we derive from being submissive or simply from ignorance of other strategies of action. As a result, we often feel uncomfortable, do not achieve our goals, do something we do not want and feel sorry for ourselves ("Why didn't I react differently...?").
If you're fed up with it and want to change something, you're probably wondering how to do it?! Do you think that it is enough to sign up for some assertiveness training? Not necessarily…
It is impossible to reduce competences such as assertiveness and defense against manipulation to the level of freely using the word "no", which is often the main point of the training program. First, it's about the ability to take care of your own comfort. This requires courage, breaking often long-standing habits and, of course, mastering new, constructive strategies of action. For most people, this is easier when they receive the right support and tools during training. Assertiveness is also more than just reactions to the behavior of others and the circumstances encountered. It's a proactive attitude - you don't wait, you create opportunities, you come up with proposals, you create reality in a way that suits you.
Change doesn't come easy. During the assertiveness training, you have the opportunity to confront your own limitations in a safe space under the supervision of a professional. You will develop and practice behaviors that are consistent with your needs, and not with existing patterns. New skills require practice, so assertiveness training gives you room to make mistakes and draw conclusions before you start implementing changes in your everyday life.
At first, people around you may react with surprise, and you may need some time and a few stumbles to feel completely comfortable with the new way of behaving developed during the training. You will achieve your goal thanks to your work and courage. You will be able to clearly set boundaries, say no without feeling guilty, talk about what you need, enforce desired behaviors, and react when "something is wrong." After the assertiveness training, you will be able to build your authority and take care of your own comfort while respecting the boundaries of others.
Still think it's not for you? That you are not predisposed to it? Don't let yourself be told that you can't take care of yourself and improve the quality of your life. You can! The question is, will you dare to sign up for the training: Assertiveness and defense against manipulation and finally CHANGE something?!
