Understanding the Non-Assertive Personality

 

Where do you tend to fall on the passive to aggressive continuum?

Assertiveness is the target for professional communication: standing up for your own rights while respecting the rights of others. However, assertiveness can be a challenge for some and even potentially feel threatening to someone who is not as confident of who has learned to win with manipulation. This white paper reviews signs of a non-assertive personality and behavior and discusses where it comes from and how to respond effectively in non-assertive situations.
