Negotiation Skills
This workshop demonstrates how to improve negotiation skills through gaining a better understanding of one’s opponent and the confidence not to settle for less than is fair. The participants will learn that an atmosphere of respect is essential, as win-lose negotiations could lead to problems in the future.
Although people often think of boardrooms, suits, and million pound deals when they hear the word negotiation, the truth is that we negotiate all the time. Through this Negotiations Skills workshop participants will be able to understand the basic types of negotiations, the phases of negotiations, and the skills needed for successful negotiating.
