Communication Styles
- There are three types of communication styles:

- Assertive: This is what I think. This is how I feel. This is how I see the situation. How about you? If our needs conflict, I am certainly ready to explore our differences and I may be prepared to compromise.
- Aggressive: This is what I think, what I want, and what I feel. What matters to you isn’t important.
