Let's Work Something Out: Winning Negotiations
Session Description
Negotiating may not be listed in your job description but your life and career are affected by how well you negotiate. This seminar will reveal key insights and best practices to bring the bigger picture into focus – successful negotiating must involve collaboration to find winning solutions for both parties. Learn to prepare effectively for negotiations to improve outcomes: gather data, know your goals, develop a strategy, and anticipate the other party’s needs and arguments. Takeaways include step by step strategies to turn negotiations into building blocks rather than stumbling blocks, to find winning solutions, create alliances, and resolve disputes.
