Standing and assertiveness for managers

This training is held in German.
As a successful manager, you need assertiveness, steadfastness and the ability to assert yourself. A stable, clear personality supports you in this. You have an idea of what you want to achieve. You represent your opinion competently and clearly. In this training, you will learn how to act confidently as a strong leader in day-to-day business and how to remain internally stable. You will also adopt a clear and constructive attitude towards yourself and others in confrontations.
