Fewer still appreciate the importance of preparing to negotiate, or understand the principles of a win-win outcome. Most of us are expected to negotiate effectively with key accounts, strategic partners, customers and vendors repeatedly over a long period of time. We also negotiate within our own organization, with bosses, colleagues, even subordinates. We need to achieve good results for ourselves while maintaining healthy, long-term relationships with our negotiating partners. In today's world, a win-win approach is the only acceptable approach to negotiation. A successful negotiation begins with preparation: gathering information, identifying interests and currencies of exchange, and creating options. It also requires an understanding of negotiating power, timing, tactics, and counter-tactics. Finally, successful negotiators must know how to guarantee they will not lose by developing a strong Plan B. This practical and interactive two-day workshop was designed for people who must negotiate in a variety of settings. It is based on the "principled negotiation" approach developed at Harvard. Facilitated by David Goldwich, a trained lawyer and mediator, this program focuses on preparing for negotiation and provides a framework for negotiating win-win outcomes. Who should attend: Managers, supervisors, lawyers, purchasing agents, contracts officers, executives, sales and marketing staff, customer service representatives, administrative and technical staff, and anyone whose work requires them to negotiate with and influence others?
