Description
The majority of people I’ve coached and advised globally lack the proper degree of assertiveness applied in the appropriate situations and with critical people.
That’s largely because assertive behavior cannot be successfully applied without the underlying belief that you are an authority and worthy of respect, not seeking approval or affection.
A large part of my success has been derived from telling people they are wrong, in error, misinformed, mistaken. The few who dislike being told that I don’t want as clients. But the majority who appreciate candid discussion have been excellent, long-term clients.
Without self-worth:
- You hedge
- You over-explain
- You defer unnecessarily
With self-worth:
- You state
- You decide
- You move on
Join me on April 23* for 90 minutes of demonstration of how simple it is to become far more assertive in the moment when you are yourself confronted or uncertain or the old “imposter voice” yells in your ear.
I’ll demonstrate how this is done with volunteers where I’ll switch roles, with language suggestions, and with case studies.
Never retreat:
Instead of “handling objections,” reframe:
- Don’t defend—reposition
- Don’t argue—clarify value
- Assertiveness redirects, it doesn’t resist. Assertiveness is the external expression of internal certainty
- It is not aggression, volume, or dominance
- It is the absence of neediness
Is it worth $500 to become more assertive immediately? How many times have you said too late: “I should have said…”? or “Why didn’t I argue about that”?
April 23, 10:30am-12:00pm US eastern time.

That date is St. George’s Day, who is believed to have slain a dragon, and who is a Patron Saint of England. He did not ask the dragon about whether it would entertain a discussion, nor did he seek its approval. There was a life to be saved.
