'NEGOTIATE FOR SUCCESS: OUTCOME DRIVEN DISCUSSIONS' WORKSHOP

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

 5:30pm-9:00pm 

SOLD OUT


Description:

Negotiation does not need to involve conflict, nor is it a competitive sport – it is based on knowing the other side's primary and secondary needs and isues, and using this information to better reach your goals in a mutually beneficial way. This practical, interactive workshop will provide you with basic tools for successful negotiations, and how to identify underlying factors that may influence the other party. These skills are especially useful in navigating large companies, getting the salary you deserve, securing funding for new initiatives, and working productively with co-workers. Topics include:

  • How to effectively persuade or convince others
  • Ways to create conditions for your own success
  • Determining what motivates others
  • Evaluating different perspectives
  • Identifying ways you may be disempowering yourself
  • Overcoming resistance and barriers
