Please see the Clearinghouse Home Page for further information. David J. Drum Didactic input and experiential exercises are designed to lead group members toward better recognition of the values and value conflicts which prompt or inhibit their assertive, non-assertive, and aggressive behaviors.
Assertiveness is presented as a set of learnable skills of verbal and non-verbal communication.
The manual is 26 pages and includes session outlines, handouts, evaluation form, and references. Use of videotapes greatly enhances the learning of non-verbal assertion skills, but skillful leaders can accomplish much the same effect through role plays. Payment must accompany order.
