At work and at home, we need to negotiate our own needs with those of others.  We have to select between competing priorities and manage overlapping roles.  When we set boundaries assertively, while consulting with key stakeholders before making decisions, we create cooperative relationships. This session outlines how to consciously set time, task and role boundaries in order to create successful relationships with ourselves and others. Register now!
