Workshop Overview:

We all negotiate in our personal and professional lives. We need to negotiate when we are selling something, or buying something, or dealing with a project, manufacturing plan, delivery schedule, a budget, or any of a hundred other situations. In most of these cases, we are trying to resolve differences. It appears, without being a good negotiator; sometimes it becomes difficult to resolve those differences when they are really needed. 

Negotiating is the process by which two or more parties with different needs and goals work to find a mutually acceptable solution to an issue.  Because negotiating is an inter-personal process, each negotiating situation is different, and influenced by each party's skills, attitudes and style.  We often look at negotiating as unpleasant, because it implies conflict, but negotiating need not be characterized by bad feelings, or angry behavior.  Understanding more about the negotiation process allows us to manage our negotiations with confidence and outcomes become positive for both parties.

Objectives of the Workshop:

To make participant understand the step by step process of negotiation so that they can manage their negotiations with confidence and outcomes become positive for both parties.

It is observed that some people shy away from negotiating just because they are afraid of making a mistake or doing poorly. In the workshop participants will be coached as to how; with a little effort, and good negotiating skills; a better agreement can be found for both parties at the same time.
