Negotiation Skills
Too often a group will meet to negotiate an arrangement and fail to come to a reasonable position - entrenched positions will stop useful negotiation and poor use of interpersonal skills will lead to 'stand off' positions and win-lose type situations. Aggressive behaviour wins out and the result is not implemented. Win-lose can lead to a future of even less useful meetings. This course offers the opportunity to learn to negotiate to a position of success.
