Course – Assertiveness & Self Confidence Workshop | Seminar | Training Course
Course Duration: 1 Day
Self-confident and assertiveness are two skills that are crucial for success in life. If you don’t feel worthy, and/ or you don’t know how to express your self-worth when communicating with others, life can be very painful. These skills will provide opportunities and benefits to your participants in their professional and personal lives.
The Assertiveness and Self-Confidence workshop will give participants an understanding of what assertiveness and self-confidence each mean (in general and to them personally) and how to develop those feelings in their day-to-day lives. These skills will encompass many aspects of your participant’s lives and have a positive effect on all of them.

A Recent Case Study

Case Study: 86 people, 18-30 years, listing 132 fears about communication. Many of their key concerns were centred on self-confidence, wanting the approval of others, loyalty technique and skill. Feedback Tarran received: “I am stunned at how you had everyone up and involved! By far the best workshop I have done in my 7 years of coming to this event and to see the change in that young man – from quiet and self-conscious, to standing at the front of the room with the microphone… wow. Simply life changing for him!’ said Nathan.
