In this episode, Gareth tells me what assertiveness is and what it isn't. He outlines how assertiveness is more about how you see yourself, and the relationships that you have with others, rather than posture or voice. I like his idea that it's neither passive nor aggressive, but a way to get your message across in a constructive manner that depends on the audience at the time.

Gareth is the Director of Business Development at Nova Terra Coaching in Brussels. He is an accredited coach with the ICF at the ACC level, working towards his PCC and supervisory qualifications. Committed to the ICF ethics and values, and assertiveness as a way of being, he is passionate about promoting the coaching industry as an agent for change and delivering high quality, practice-led training.
