In today's class we continued with the topic assertiveness. However we have seen some new styles of assertiveness. Those styles are how to say no in a constructive way. Suppose that you are an employee and your manager requests some work to be done in a very short period of time, and you haven't got sufficient time to fulfil the task successfully. In this case in order to be respectful with your manager and not to get fired, you got to say i can't but in a constructive style.
In the activity we have done in couples, I took the role of the manager while my class mate took the role of the employee to perform the excercise supposed above. My employee wasn't able to do the task on time and he was so respectful with me saying ( I can do the task but just indulge me some additional time as I have the project from the other department needs to be submitted within the same period ).
Being me the manager I appreciate his words and how he was good enough with his manager and not saying NO in a direct way.
