Influencing & Negotiating

 

Course Aim


To provide you with a range of strategies enabling you to get more from other people and show you how to develop a flexible approach to successful negotiating.
 

 

Influencing


You will have an opportunity to identify your current influencing and negotiating behaviour. You will find out how your style/behaviour affects the people you deal with in the your business and in the public domain. You will learn how to adopt a more flexible approach so that you can gain more from every communication you have with other people.
 
 

Negotiating
 

You will be introduced to a Four Phase negotiating model; Prepare; Debate; Propose; Bargain. Each of the phases will be explained and you will be encouraged to relate this learning to the influencing and negotiating situations you come across every day. Emphasis is placed on how to prepare for a successful negotiation using a 5 Step system.

 

Practice
 

You will not be asked to ‘role play’ but you will be given a case study to work through with other participants. The course ends with practical tips and hints on how to handle difficult negotiators.
