Negotiation is a key part of every professional's life. How long will it take? Who's going to do it? How much will it cost?
This course has, as its central premise, the idea that the best outcome for a negotiation is that both parties feel they have been successful. It helps the learner plan for negotiations, make sure the outcomes are successful and handle difficult situations when they arise.
