Managers negotiate every day and the results have substantial impact on their performances. To be effective, managers need to deal with negotiation situations in a systematic and organised manner.

This 4- day dynamic programme has been designed to specifically enhance executives’ confidence and ability at the negotiating table to gain strategic advantage. Through experiential tools, lectures and interactive analysis, participants will learn to change the way they view and evaluate action alternatives in competitive situations.

 

Through a blend of case studies, role plays and exercises, this 4-day experiential programme provides executives opportunity to:

  • Learn the essentials of negotiations in varied business contexts
  • Understand how negotiating strategies are planned and implemented to optimise performance for self and others
  • Gain a deeper understanding of distributive (win/lose) and integrative (win/win) negotiation tactics 
  • Learn effective tactics & strategies to resolve negotiating deadlocks
  • Improve ability while negotiating in groups and as individuals

 

The programme is effective in developing and sharpening negotiation skills at the senior and middle management levels. Therefore Directors, General Managers and managers from different functional areas such as Marketing, Finance, Human Resource Management, Production etc, are encouraged to apply.
