Negotiation Training

Negotiations are a vital act of communication, essential for navigating our professional lives. Process is the key word here. The idea of negotiation as a series of strategies for getting what you want does not quite capture the complexities and intricacies of what actually happens when we negotiate.

As a process anchored in inter-human interactions, negotiation takes on a vital significance, because if it is conducted with a clear purpose, and consciously, it can act as a means of expressing what it is that we and our counterparts actually want. We then can work dynamically from there to find ways of approaching and satisfying those wants.

Since negotiating is chiefly a communicative act, it is vital to examine negotiations from a communicative aspect first. In a second step, the numerous tools and techniques useful for providing a framework to any negotiation process can be explored. These will help you to conduct your negotiations using an empowering, step-by-step process that provides clarity throughout.
