Strategies for Good Negotiators

The aim of negotiation is not to “get a deal”. It is to get a good deal for all parties. Negotiation is an integral part of creating value for any organization. Women negotiate differently than men. Learn how to negotiate with authenticity.


This workshop is especially designed for female managers. It will help you gain practice and insight into the best strategies of good negotiators as you build your own skills. We all negotiate. Your success depends on your personal skills as a negotiator. So, regardless of whether you are seeking resources for your project, a better salary or closing a high-stakes deal, this will help. Through a series of group exercises, you will learn how to execute proven tactics, refine your personal negotiating style and improve your ability to create collaborative and ethical win-win results in any situation. You can use these negotiating skills to positively impact business and personal situations. Be coached by a professional, eliminate blind spots you may have and take your negotiation skills to the next level.
