Introduction to Negotiation Skills
Is it for me?
We can run this workshop for business clubs or groups of business owners who want to learn some of the strategies used by professional negotiators, who know how to strike the deal they want, and how to approach situations where prices and terms need to be negotiated.
Summary
Everyone needs to be able to negotiate! In business it is a critical skill to help you build productive and profitable relationships and to achieve the results you need to make your business flourish. Some of us find it harder than others to ask for what we want. Unhelpful thoughts can hinder our ability to drive a good bargain and to stand up for what we believe is a fair outcome. This workshop shows you have to stay in control of a negotiation process when our minds (and hearts!) are racing.
