Negotiation Workshops

You negotiate every day with customers, suppliers, co-workers, business associates and family.  You want results in your negotiations but you don’t want to fall into the destructive patterns that could damage what could be constructive relationships.  You need to make your negotiations effective by figuring out what motivates the other side and knowing when to put an offer on the table.  To become a powerful negotiator, you need the skills to handle difficult people and protect yourself from having someone take advantage of you.

How do you get others to “buy-in”?  How can you avoid creating long term problems when you negotiate?  How can you avoid being taken advantage of in negotiations without creating an impasse?  The negotiation workshop will help you succeed where others fail by giving you practical skills that will work in the real world so that you will Expect Success.

Online Negotiation Course

  • $230+taxes

For busy people who can’t afford three days out of the office, we also offer just the on-line  portion of the negotiation course. Participants engage in seven simulated negotiations with animated computer characters who present numerous challenges.  Participants must navigate the negotiation and get the best deal.  If they don’t get the best deal, they are told why, and invited to try again.  There are detailed (downloadable) notes at the end of each module explaining the theories behind the negotiation and providing tips.  The course is offered over the Internet, and takes about 5 hours to complete.
