Assertiveness and Self-Advocacy Assessment

Assertiveness is the ability to express your thoughts, needs, and boundaries directly and confidently -- without aggression and without passivity.

Assertiveness is the ability to express yourself clearly and directly without aggression and without passivity. It is foundational to professional effectiveness.

Answer based on how you actually behave at work, not how you believe a high-performing professional should behave. Honest responses produce useful reports. The goal is not a flattering score -- it is an accurate one.
