Try developing your assertiveness and communication skills to help with these and other situations.The situation might vary but the key skills involved in negotiating stay constant. This workshop will teach you how to get the best out of every situation and keep good will from everyone involved. Find out how to negotiate successfully verbally and in text, identify and present the logic of negotiation to others, anticipate, navigate and win through difficult conversations, have conflict-free negotiations, use strategies to achieve your short and long term objectives and attain self-assertiveness.
