Say ‘no’ to verbal attacks and ‘hello’ to speaking up with power and control.
Welcome to the Verbal Attack Response System.
This is a self-paced course for professionals who want to stop being the target of verbal aggression at work. Do you want to be treated reasonably and become the pace-setter in tough conversations?
I get it. There’s nothing worse than being the scapegoat of a verbally abusive person. Verbal attacks are unexpected, embarrassing and unfair. So it’s natural to want to defend yourself. Sadly, though, reacting defensively just doesn’t work. This is because it plays right into the hands of verbal aggressors. You need a smarter way to respond; one based on the psychology of influence. You need the Verbal Attack Response System.
Are you fed up with being on the receiving end of unfair criticism, shaming tactics or manipulative power games? Do you dread talking to That Person who blusters, gaslights or insists on having the last word? Are you OVER feeling powerless or frustrated in tough conversations?
You’re not alone.
Those anxious reactions have a name, because they’re so common. They are called Fight or Flight Stress Reactions. And you are NOT to blame for feeling them (even though the bullies and gas lighters in your life will say you are). Luckily, there is a fast way to take back control. It’s called Assertive Responding.
