Negotiation techniques

How to convince instead of being convinced

In any given moment of our lives, we each have wishes, interests or perspectives that are potentially divergent to those of the others. Each of us can convince or can be persuaded.

Managing the negotiation process is essential for making profit. There are many negotiation techniques we can learn. However, learning is one thing, applying that theory with compelling results is another, and the journey between them demands experience, as well as specific techniques, suited to each communication style.

What is the best attitude in a successful negotiation, creating the premises for a rewarding collaboration? This is the key of negotiation our course will explore.
