assertiveness

28 & 29 NOVEMBER 2012

  • Do you automatically submit to your partner’s wishes and opinions?
  • Do you stop yourself asking your boss for a rise or a promotion?
  • Are you uncomfortable about expressing yourself in a clear, specific way?
  • Do you defer to others whose style or behaviour is more domineering?
  • Have you given in as far back as you can remember?
  • Do you get your needs met – always, often, rarely?

    • Do you recognize these questions arising in your life?

    Whatever your individual dilemmas, you will learn practical ideas and approaches on this workshop which you can then take out into the world.

    Assertiveness is the willingness to define yourself – one of the most challenging yet rewarding and confidence-building steps you can take. Using visualisations, exercises and the sharing of personal experiences, the workshop will explore such issues as:

           Is it OK to say NO?
           Why is it such a challenge for you to make an impact?
           Where is the risk in standing your ground?
           What habits and patterns damage your self-esteem?
           How do you contort yourself to avoid conflict?
           Where is your “bottom line”?

      If you want to discuss participating in the workshop or to reserve a place, please call me on 07973 322819 or email marcusgottlieb@gmail.com. The workshop fee is £170.

    Many of the paintings used on this site are taken from the work of Mark Rothko, born Marcus Rothkowitz in Russia in 1903 to a Lithuanian Jewish father and a Prussian Jewish mother. He worked with colour relationships to imbue his paintings with the tragedy of the human condition. He wrote, 'The most important tool the artist fashions through constant practice is faith in his ability to produce miracles when they are needed. [For the artist, the picture must be] as for anyone experiencing it later, a revelation, an unexpected and unprecedented resolution of an entirely familiar need.'
