Assert Yourself in a part of the book, we read:
Let’s face it! Managers have something we do not have, power. You may be scared to see a manager, because he has the power and authority. There is a subtle message to us in the titles engraved on wooden doors or small paintings on large tables, that managers are the designers of the future.
Power, like a match, can be both destructive and constructive. Managers who have thinking and thinking can use their power to grow and succeed employees and empower them. Ninety percent of managers use their position to help people achieve their personal goals.
A decisive personality in any business relationship is not afraid of the power of the manager. Decisiveness and assertiveness increase a person’s authority, because his feelings and thoughts are properly expressed. An employee who expresses himself boldly and decisively can perform his assigned work tasks completely and in the best way.
At the same time, if his feelings and thoughts are expressed in a proper and desirable way at the right time and place, he can no longer prevent them from occurring, or conceal them or deny them. If both the manager and the employee see assertiveness as a positive change, there will be no more danger or threat to either.
Expressing yourself in any relationship with your manager is a positive weight. We review the eight needs of managers below, along with the type of answers and reactions suggested by each interactive person with a bold nature.
