Communication skills are a game-changer for those who learn, practice, and lean into the discomfort of engaging in difficult conversations. Assertiveness is the practice of clear, concise, and fair communication that is respectful of your rights as the communicator while also being respectful of the rights of the person(s) you're communicating with. As times shift and the landscape changes in the coffee industry, assertiveness may be the tool to help you navigate this new territory in the new coffee industry.
