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: One reason that you should always be assertive is because being rude won’t make you any friends and it’s always good to have people there for you in tough times. Another reason you should always be assertive is because you won’t get a job without being assertive. If someone you want to hire you is in a disagreement with you and you aren’t assertive they are likely to not hire you. |
