Obtain what you deserve

Summary

Professionals are required to negotiate technical, business and financial aspects of projects.  Those who become comfortable and capable in negotiating are often the most successful.

With competition increasing and clients asking more questions about scope of work, fee schedules, labor rates, subcontractor mark-ups, other charges, overhead rates, changes and other costs, negotiating skills are more important than ever.  Many clients are taught the skills of negotiating.  They know that if they do not ask, they will not receive.  They are finding that when they do ask, they often receive.  They receive from you, from me and from others they ask.

This seminar has been developed to prepare you for negotiating and feeling more comfortable in preparing, doing and concluding negotiations.  It will provide you with the skills to better understand the negotiating process, recognize tactics being used by others, develop approaches that fit with you and methods to be successful in negotiating.

The approach used in this training program is a win-win philosophy.   This approach builds relationships with your clients, suppliers, employees, shareholders and others.  Other ways of negotiating can be successful in the short-term, but not the long term.  If I win and the other party loses, they will be unhappy and will determine some way to win in the future, or sever the relationship.  Either way, the end result is that I lose in another future situation or visa versa.  In win-win negotiating, you can be fair and reasonable and still protect yourself from those who may try to take advantage of your fairness.  In the end, this type of negotiating will protect you, enable relationships to further develop and result in more repeat and profitable work.
