Assertive behaviour
-Interpersonal orientation
-Facilitating smooth relations
-Stroking
Assertiveness is the
process of expressing
feelings,asking for
legitimate changes, and
receiving honest
feedback.
● Assertive people are direct, honest and
expressive.
● They feel confident, gain self-respect and make
others feel valued.
● A poor alternative is aggressiveness, in which
people may humiliate others, and passive people
who elicit either pity or scorn from others and
seldom have much positive impact.

Interpersonal facilitation—
the capacity to focus on others personal
needs, sensitive and idiosyncrasies and then
work to keep conflict under control and
collaboration high among team members.
This requires awareness of which personality
traits would create synergy within a team.
