 Negotiation is a key professional and personal life skill, yet in 20 years of teaching it to senior executives, I'm staggered by how few people have actually been formally trained in it. We've all felt the disadvantage of playing a card or a board game with someone because they knew the rules better, and then we inevitably lose the game to these people because of that. Negotiation is exactly the same. If you've ever walked out of a negotiation thinking could have done better or regretted some of the concessions you made, this course will teach you skills that will help you become a much better negotiator. This will be because you now know more of the roles of the negotiating game. Hello, my name is Martin Brooks and I've been running negotiation workshops at CIM since 2009. I hope to see you on the One Day of Business Negotiation Skills Program where you will not only learn the key skills needed to be an effective negotiator, you will also give the opportunity to practice them as the course is highly interactive and gives you the opportunity to ask questions that are pertinent to you. I look forward to seeing you there. Bye for now.
