Successful negotiation begins with understanding your own and the other party’s interests, separating people from the problem and knowing how to invent options where both parties feel they are being treated fairly and their needs have been addressed. It takes skillful communication to achieve positive, long-term outcomes.

This workshop provides participants with practical negotiation skills they can use with customers, suppliers or inside of their organizations when they are seeking mutually acceptable agreements.

This experiential course features a case simulation and role play where participants will prepare for and engage in a fictional negotiation.
