Lynn is an excellent trainer who I couldn’t recommend more. She was very patient and attentive to our requirements and we thoroughly enjoyed the 2 day training

-Claire Frascati – 07/07/2025

An engaging and thought provoking day

A really useful and thought provoking day. I was very impressed to receive such a quick response on a Saturday when enquiring about last minute availability on a course. Easy to book on, joining instructions were clear and promptly received, and the trainer David was very knowledgable and approachable. I hope to increase my assertiveness both at work and in my personal life, and found the course to be useful for both. Well presented, interesting and lots of useful tips for anyone wishing to increase their assertiveness.

-Rebecca Roche – 27/06/2025 – Assertiveness Skills

You'll come away with more tools for the tool box

This course is full to the brim with information - make sure you have practiced your note taking skills! Lynn was great; extremely knowledgeable and attentive to what the attendees wanted to get out of the course. We outlined what we wished to gain from the course and by the end of the course all objectives had been worked on - and more. I have found out how I work on a personal level and a professional level, understanding strengths and weaknesses and now I have a road map on what I need to do to improve. I can confidently say I have some new tools for the specific events that I tend to struggle with in the workplace. Just make sure you are clear and concise with your note taking! There is a lot of information. Don't be like me and get home, peruse through your notes, and have no idea why you wrote them down!

-Jake Cox – 27/06/2025 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness Training

I recently attended an assertiveness training course, and honestly, I went in with mixed expectations. On one hand, I was hoping to gain some practical skills to help me communicate more effectively, especially in situations where I tend to clam up or become overly passive. On the other hand, I was a bit skeptical about whether a short course could really make a difference. Overall, I'd say the training was a positive experience. I particularly appreciated the focus on using 'I' statements to express my feelings and needs without sounding accusatory. The role-playing exercises were also incredibly helpful in building my confidence and practicing different scenarios. I especially liked the section on setting boundaries and learning to say no, which is something I've always struggled with. However, I do think the course could have delved deeper into the cultural nuances of assertiveness. What's considered assertive in one context might be seen as aggressive in another, and it would have been helpful to explore those differences.

-Jagoda Wood – 16/12/2024 – Assertiveness Skills

Great experience with the assertiveness skills training

My team and I embarked on a one-day in-person assertiveness skills training course with Revolution Learning & Development. The trainer, Sue, was fantastic and she drove the conversation in order to focus on all of our pain points and areas of interest. I feel like we all came away feeling more confident in our skills and clear on the next steps we need to take on our assertiveness journey. The skills learnt felt very actionable.

-Daniel Humphrey Rodriguez – 21/11/2024

Knowledge is power

With the ever changing world and environment, knowledge is power. Revolution learning, and the assertiveness course has allowed me to develop myself and take a closer step towards 'power'. It is great to have opportunities and facilities like these to divulge into other topics of interest, without having to break the bank, or use up years to study toward a particular topic. I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone who's looking to further their learning and understanding, to be brave and take that step - a step, I personally do not regret.

A wonderfully informative trainer and great course

What a fantastically personable trainer! Sue's experiences are great examples to learn from, I was concerned that being more assertive would make me seem cold, less passionate about my role but she showed that assertiveness is as much heart as it is head, that you can still be kind to others whilst being kind to yourself (and not walk away from situations feeling you were too aggressive or too passive and kick yourself). Would have Sue again as a trainer in a heartbeat, loved her style of delivery and her openness.

Great Training

I attended the Assertiveness Training in Manchester. It was very useful training for me and the training was informative and fun. He created a relaxed environment and made the training engaging. He asked us questions to make us think, rather than just being talked at. I would definitely recommend this training or any training with David.

We had some interesting discussions lead by Rachel & all had a chance to talk baout personal instances where assertiveness may have been of use. The venue was very well organised, nice and tidy, eccentric / brilliant decor & not to mention the hot buffet which catered for most dietary requirements as far as I could see.

Perfect for our team!

David delivered our assertiveness course in a friendly and professional manner.

Informal conversations were much more effective and beneficial than boring power point slides. Thank you David!

Great Course

This course was great and highlighted small changes that I can make to have a better working relationship with others. David was engaging and provided examples for the majority of scenarios that I put forward and related them to my own experiences. He also gave feedback on how I could have done somethings slightly different which may have led to a different outcome. Overall I really enjoyed the course and feel confident that I can implement these changes going forward.

Assertiveness - not agression

It was a good learning experience (online). The tutor was very informative and we discussed different issues when we felt unable to say 'no' colleagues. We discussed ways to protect ourselves without being aggressive. How to use words more effectively, to pause.

-Elaine Glenister – 22/10/2020 – Assertiveness Skills

Excellent training course

This is a fantastic training session aimed at all levels of employees. It provided strategies and techniques to be more assertive in my role and areas of improvements I could make to allow me to be more assertive. The trainer is excellent and it is a very worthwhile course.

-Claire Hastie – 22/10/2020 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness Skills Training Feedback

I would strongly recommend this course to anyone looking to further understand and develop assertiveness skills in both a personal and professional capacity. This course helps build knowledge of the different types of assertiveness and how this can impact effective communication and provides techniques on how to navigate situations where you may be faced with different assertive styles. This course really helped develop my confidence in being more assertive at work and how to appropriately communicate with others.

-Katy Corfield – 31/07/2020 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness TRaining Online Course

I found the trainer and the other Revolution training staff very helpful and informative. The presentation was very detailed and had lots of Psychological approaches and theories of Assertiveness which was very good. It was very difficult for the trainer to fully engage with us as the training was online and he handled it well but if it was a classroom based course I think we would have been more involved and engaged. The only thing I would say is that it would have been better to include more about what assertiveness is. There was lots of theories of behaviour and communication styles but I don't think any of them specifically explained assertiveness. But it was very informative and well delivered and I would definitely use Revolution training again.

-Greg Ead – 02/04/2020 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness Skills

A great course, packed full of great tips. This was a first online session for Revolution Learning and it was executed very professionally, with three trainers present which tripled the value in terms of knowledge, experience and tips shared. I'd certainly recommend this course to anyone who wants to communicate with greater impact and effectiveness. Thanks Revolution Learning.

-Lisa Butterworth – 02/04/2020 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness Skills course in Southampton

The course was really interesting and full of really useful, practical tips that I can use both in my professional life and in my personal life. Lynne, the trainer, was interested in my work and used examples from my life to help make the content more applicable to me. She focused on areas I felt weakest in, and helped give me assurance areas I felt the least confident. I felt really confident after the course, as I left with practical skills I knew I could translate into actions. I would highly recommend this course.

-Steph – 11/02/2020 – Assertiveness Skills

-Laura Elliott – 23/09/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness skills

I thoroughly enjoyed my assertiveness skills training. Having had no previous training I was fascinated from start to finish, having not quite realised that 'assertiveness' is a skill we can all learn and not just something we're born with! I have picked up lots of practical tips that I am determined to put into practice. The trainer was excellent and the fact that it was a small group meant I felt extremely comfortable speaking out and was able to fully participate. A good venue too, and the lunch was delicious! I would (and have) highly recommended the course to others.

-Debbie Spauls – 30/08/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Assertiveness Training Skills

i had a lovely day on the Course, the facilitator was courteous and a pleasure to deal with. My own opinion would be that it would have been great to have gotten some general phrases to be used until the training became more fluid to me. i know there are a few in the exercise book given on the day, but as we didn't really look at it, its not the same trying to go through it myself.

-Margaret Mullins – 07/08/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Great Trainer and Course

Very useful information taken away from this course. The group was very small which meant our trainer Lynne was able to relate the course to our personal experiences which we had explained to her which was extremely helpful. Lots of different styles of learning are used throughout the day which is helpful to suit everyone.

-Stacey – 26/06/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Excellent assertiveness course

This was quite possibly one of the most useful courses I've attended in a number of years. I was able to take several practical tools that I learnt from the course that I'll be able to apply next time I need to be assertive. The group was very small so our trainer Lynne was able to tailor the course to our individual needs and circumstances, while also giving us the opportunity to work on theoretical exercises.

-Carys Hedd Paschalis – 09/05/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Great atmosphere and both instructors Lynne/Andrew were very engaging and knowledgeable. Would recommend them and the company to others.

-James Bramwell – 08/05/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Took a Lot Away

I didn't think this course would help as I thought I was already assertive, but I was wrong. The course opened my eyes to what it really meant to be assertive and the tools we looked at were really easy to follow and easy to implement. I've already used some of these with instant results. Lynne the trainer was amazing. The course was really engaging and the fact that there was no PowerPoint was surprising but made the course really engaging. Thanks Lynne and thanks Revolution.

-Alan Bramwell – 01/05/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

Didn't think I needed this course. I was asked to go by my boss but I actually learned a few things and it made me think about how I came across to other people at work. Thank you for your help

-George Pallister – 12/03/2019 – Assertiveness Skills

My Course Was Great

I had a really good experience on this course as it helped me with a real situation that I was facing with someone at work. The small group meant that we could talk about our own scenarios and I felt really comfortable talking to the trainer about my own. I tried some of the things we discussed and they do seem to be helping. Thank you to Lynne for taking the time to help.

-Sarah Goddard – 24/02/2019 – Assertiveness Skills
