Why do you think the ideal communication style is assertive communication?

There are 3 modes of communication: passive, assertive, and aggressive. Assertive is the ideal style of communication because it allows you to healthily voice your opinions without offending others. When you are able to communicate right it makes talking to others easier. It is preferable over speaking to someone who is highly uncomfortable and you have to carry to convo or someone who just yells at you the whole time.

Responses will vary. A sample response follows:

Assertive communication is the ideal communication style because it is the healthiest communication style. Assertive communicators express needs respectfully, listen without interrupting others, use good eye contact, utilize calm and clear tones of voice, and do not allow others to manipulate or abuse them. This style of communication expresses that all parties involved are important and matter equally. The results of an assertive communication style are higher self-esteem, self-respect, and respect from and of others.
