201867 Healthy Boundaries at Work: As human beings, we vary significantly when it comes to our needs, values and preferences, as well our beliefs about the right ways to be-have and interact in the workplace. It’s to be expected that differences come up in our day to day interactions. Having healthy boundaries means being assertive and communicating one’s needs, while re-specting the needs of others. By doing so, we can minimize feelings of resentment, anger, anxiety and stress and increase our levels of satisfaction, ease and productivity in our place of work.

Skills learned in this train-ing will focus on the workplace, since work-place dynamics require a level of diploma-cy, tact and artfulness that are unique to the professional environment.
