Practical learning method

This course is very much a practice-based course. You will be given an opportunity to test yourself, and we will constantly relate theory and tools to realistic situations that you know from your everyday life.

The facilitation takes place in a calm, relaxed atmosphere where you can safely make the necessary mistakes and expect positive, forthcoming feedback from the facilitator and your fellow course participants.

• Gain a framework for negotiations
  You will get a toolbox and learn about a number of processes that make it easy to initiate and conduct even complicated negotiations

• Understand your counterpart’s interests
  When you know what is important to your counterpart, you have the key to achieving results

• Plan your negotiation
  Structure, unpredictability and scenarios ensure that you keep your negotiation on track – regardless of what happens

• Ask so that you get the right answers
  Identifying focus areas in the negotiation requires asking good questions – and the right answers are rarely the ones you’d prefer to hear

• How do I handle insecurity and lack of clarity?
  Misunderstandings occur in any negotiation where you talk at cross purposes or interpret the situation differently. Learn to bring the dialogue back on track.
