Negotiation Mastery (1hr)

In the new economic situation, the need to get the best deal possible is more pressing than ever. More than ever, the culture of negotiation needs to spread and deepen throughout the organisation, leading to a constant reduction in costs and improvement in efficiency. Negotiation situations often go beyond the simple one-to-one scenarios. What happens if you are negotiating on behalf of someone else? Or your counterparty is? What happens if there are several parties involved, all with competing agendas? This course uses the latest thinking from Harvard Business School to achieve sustainable negotiated agreements that satisfy all parties at the table, using powerful tools to deal with the most complex of multi-party negotiations.

On completion of this course you will be able to:

• Negotiate confidently and skillfully with any business stakeholder to achieve the optimum solution at minimum cost
• Build profitable and sustainable relationships through negotiating win-win solutions with customers and suppliers, internal or external
• Call on a repertoire of advanced techniques to get around any impasse in the negotiation due to conflicting demands
• Be more cost-conscious and aware of the many opportunities present for cost-cutting and negotiation
• Use the Harvard Approach of Principle-Centered Negotiations
• 'Negotiate backwards' to successfully resolve complex multi-party negotiations
• Identify and neutralise dirty tactics from the other side
