Do you find it difficult to be assertive in your own life (personal and professional)? Why or why not?
What are the risks of being assertive with Bob? Make sure you utilize common course terminology when explaining the risks.
Mary comes to you later in the day and says, “Boss, Bob is trying to negotiate with you, he has a target in mind, and is not flexible, so his limit is not much different than his target.” Explain what Mary is talking about (explain, in your OWN words, the concepts of targets and limits during negotiations).
What specifically won’t work in your peer’s email to Bob? Make a recommendation on how to reword (or use another approach).
