The attached video is an excerpt from a very condensed presentation on assertiveness. The title of the presentation is The 3 R’s of Assertiveness. (An alternative title is Don’t Act Like Prey!.)
Part 4, Respect, discusses the importance of respecting ourselves and our rights. When we do not, we are passive. It also discusses the importance of respecting others and their rights. When we do not, we are aggressive. By respecting ourselves and others, and acting accordingly, we are assertive.
It also discusses using wildlife metaphors for describing passive, aggressive, and assertive behavior.
Each week I will post the next section of the presentation. Last week was on rights. Next week will be the final, the finish of the story stared in section 1.
