This book is a true blend of insights, stories, and actionable strategies. In an era where communication is central to fostering harmonious relationships with students, players, parents, administration, and colleagues, Johnson and Johnson masterfully present a roadmap that any professional, regardless of their vocation, can benefit from. Confidence in your capabilities to be assertive with your gifts is one short read away. If you are a teacher, you are a leader. Lead Strong!

“In a time when educators and the education profession is in crisis and in some cases under attack, it is imperative that educators engage in reflection and self-talk to assist them in finding the strength to help their students, help each other, and above all, help themselves excel in providing an exceptional education for our students. In Johnson and Johnson's Becoming a More Assertive Teacher, educators receive valuable insight on how to identify their internal response to situations and how to analyze and coach themselves to become firm in their actions with more evident self-confidence.”
—Dr. Marta Carmona. Educator with an over 30-year career serving in varying roles as a Teacher, Assistant Principal, Principal, Curriculum and Instruction Auditor, Interim Superintendent, and Deputy Superintendent in small rural, mid-size, and large urban school districts in the beautiful city of El Paso, Texas.
"The willingness to take on our education system and its fundamental players is complex and requires courage to identify truths rarely spoken of publicly. Johnson and Johnson finally say what every teacher and administrator has known for decades. Teachers need the power and willingness to assert control over personal and classroom conditions to provide the world class education they know students need and deserve."
