Why use this programme?
Ever wonder if the deals you get are the best available? Do you sometimes wonder if there is a more effective way of gaining the agreement and co-operation of others? Is “Win-Win” just an aspiration? – or is there more to it than that? How can you get a better deal without it costing you more?
This programme seeks to answer these questions in a practical environment where you can safely learn about your own natural style and practice the techniques that the most successful negotiators use.
This programme can be run for both experienced and inexperienced negotiators.
AIMS – an overview of the purpose of the programme

To highlight the role that negotiating skills play in inter-organisation co-operation, internal co-operation, conflict resolution and developing business relationships, as well as the more traditional applications such as purchasing and selling services and products.
To enhance the negotiating skills of participants so that agreements are secured and retained at an acceptable cost in terms of budget, time and resources whilst partnership working, internal, supplier, and other business relations are developed and improved.
