Assertiveness in the Health Domain explores the transformative power of assertiveness within the health sector through a holistic, interdisciplinary, and culturally sensitive lens. This comprehensive guide offers invaluable tools and strategies for educators, parents, caregivers, and health professionals to cultivate assertive skills, enhance the quality of care, and improve teamwork and interpersonal relationships in health-related environments and educational institutions.

The findings are drawn from the latest research and emerging trends in assertiveness, with a focus on practices in the US, Spain, and Latin America, ensuring readers have access to the most current and relevant information in this dynamic field.

With its wide-ranging scope, theoretical and methodological depth, and practical applications, this book is an essential resource for researchers, academics, upper-level postgraduate students, and leaders in private, public, and third-sector organizations.
