Negotiation Skills Seminar
Basic Strategies to Achieve Your Goals!
This workshop will use experiential learning techniques to allow participants to identify, learn, and apply basic negotiation strategies and skills in both one-on-one situations as well as in teams.
This topic provides a plethora of interactive (and fun) exercises that demonstrate current research and allow participants to apply what they have learned.
It also can be very complex, especially as the uncertainty of outcomes, the number of participants, and the number of attributes to be agreed upon increases and/or varies.

Who should attend Negotiation Skills Seminar? EVERYONE!
While this topic is often associated with purchasing or sales, the basic strategies covered in this workshop would apply to all business functions, as well as to the relationships and situations they find outside of work.
We negotiate when we submit project proposals, suggest engineering revisions, change schedules, sell an idea, etc. Anytime and anywhere trade-offs exist, negotiation takes place.
This includes job offers; car and home purchases; with spouses or children; etc. Anytime someone wants something from another party, they enter negotiations.
