Executive Education - Fundamentals of Effective Negotiation
From Preparation to Execution: Build Essential Skills for Effective, Value-Driven Negotiations. Fundamentals of Effective Negotiation is a one-day session designed to introduce you to the ABCs of negotiation and how to build a strong foundation of how to think about, prepare for, and execute negotiations in a variety of contexts (e.g., client negotiations). Through this session, you will gain greater understanding into the five fundamental questions you should ask before every negotiation to enhance your negotiating effectiveness. Additionally, you will explore different negotiating approaches, assess your own negotiation style, and learn how it may influence your negotiated outcomes. Finally, you will gain practice negotiating in both two-party and multi-party negotiations, much like the ones you might encounter with clients, coworkers, and/or supervisors. Through these experiences, you will gain a deeper understanding of how to negotiate both assertively and collaboratively in order to create greater value-adding agreements.
