Assertively into life

How to say "no" without feeling guilty? How to ask for a favour? Where is the limit of acceptable compromise in a dispute? How not to be manipulated? How to criticize correctly and how to accept criticism? Assertiveness offers methods of constructive management of many typical communication stalemates that complicate not only our coexistence with others at work, school and family, but also our relationship with ourselves. In the third edition of their successful book, the well-known counselling psychologists, authors of successful popular psychology books, present, in addition to the necessary theoretical overview of assertive techniques and rights, tests and practical training programmes for assertive behaviour training. We hope that the book Assertively in Life will be a guide for you on your journey of setting boundaries with your communication partners, that it will help you to navigate your own motives for acting and that it will effectively support your efforts to lead a confident and balanced life in a non-manipulative society.
