Show Notes

What is Assertiveness? And what is its connection to Mental Health?  

In this episode, learn from I/O Psychologist Dr. Abby Hamilton as she provides background on the I/O practice and the importance of emotional intelligence in the workplace. 

In addition, learn about how she relates assertiveness with Filipino culture: why do some Filipinos (both in the Philippines and in the US) lack assertiveness and how is it impacting their personal and professional lives?  There's a lot of useful insights here for both Filipinos and non-Filipinos alike, especially if you are interested in understanding our culture.
