Negotiation skills are used by all managers, either face-to-face or by telephone, both with external organisations and internally with colleagues. Beyond the world of 'buying and selling', managers negotiate for a variety of reasons such as; project management; human resource allocations; service delivery specifications; improved support; or increased budget allocation. This course will provide delegates with support and guidance on how to employ practical skills to conduct win-win negotiations. Practical exercises exploring strategies for dealing with 'stand-offs' and 'sticking points' will enable participants to explore fully, how their own personal style, and attributes can be applied effectively/successfully to the negotiation process.
