Project Manager neither be aggressive nor assertive always. Project Manager should wear aggressiveness in some situations and assertiveness in majority of the situations. e.g Your team member is asking for a leave which is a genuine but you have deadlines to complete the project due to that you cannot approve his leave.
In this situation, you should try to explain him milestone of the project and approves his leave if he stretches complete his scheduled work. ===> Assertiveness (WIN - WIN)
If you directly say "I cannot approve your leave" then this would motivate your team member.
