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: You're more likely to get want you want in the moment even though people may resent you later for your negativity and lack of basic respect. You should choose to communicate assertively if you really need something immediately and do not care about or see the affects of your long term reputation, likability, or being able to receive help later on. |
