Introduction to Negotiation

About

Negotiation is an essential skill in both professional and personal settings, whether you're working with clients, suppliers, and stakeholders or making significant purchases like a car or a home. Yet, negotiation is often misunderstood as a win-lose tactic rather than a collaborative process.

This practical, hands-on course will introduce you to the fundamentals of effective negotiation, with a strong emphasis on achieving fair and mutually beneficial outcomes. Through real-world scenarios and an interactive exercise, you'll build the confidence and skills to negotiate constructively and ethically.

Who should attend?
This course is ideal for:

  • Individuals new to negotiation
  • Anyone who finds negotiation challenging or intimidating
  • Professionals whose roles require regular negotiation


Whether you're looking to build foundational skills or become more confident in negotiation situations, this interactive workshop will help you grow in a supportive and engaging environment.
