How does Assertiveness relate to NVC?

How does Assertiveness relate to NVC?

Assertiveness may differ from NVC if someone asserts their wants with no consideration for any other people involved. In NVC our focus is on making things work for everybody. When we assert our needs and our requests, we also want to be mindful that actions we request work for others as well, and want to create the greatest likelihood that our requests are met willingly, rather than grudgingly.
