Well known as one of the authors of The New York Times best-seller "Difficult Conversations", Sheila’s latest work focuses on assertiveness.  In this session, she will examine the most common obstacles to our ability to assert ourselves effectively as leaders. She’ll also share techniques for overcoming the obstacles – some of which may surprise you!
