Negotiation training course

Getting To Yes

Negotiating agreements, resolving disputes

Two day interactive workshop

Real success in today's interdependent business world demands a two-fold strategy: you need to achieve high-profit, maximum value outcomes each time you negotiate; and yet you also need to build the working relationships essential for long-term growth.

It isn't easy to do both. But CMA's revolutionary approach, developed at Harvard University, enables you to do just that, in all types of negotiations. Whether you're wheeling and dealing in business, managing projects from day to day, or seeking to resolve disputes, let us take your negotiation skills to the next level…

Benefits of attending

Applying groundbreaking techniques developed at Harvard University, and honed through years of application in association with Monash University, this two-day negotiation skills program will equip you to:

• analyse a negotiation and identify obstacles to achieving your desired results;

• prepare for negotiation systematically and comprehensively, increasing your confidence and ability to plan targeted strategies;

• create maximum value solutions, beyond a mere compromise - even when dealing with difficult people;

• communicate skillfully and persuasively;

• manage key working relationships without compromising your own objectives;

• transform hostile or positional negotiations into "problem-solving" collaborations;

• make clear, rational decisions about when to accept or reject a negotiation proposal, and when to walk away from a negotiation altogether; and

• learn from each negotiation, to continually develop your skills.

Workshop format

CMA's expert consultants are practitioners as well as teachers. The workshop will be engaging and highly practical.

The course blends interactive presentation, group discussion, role-play and case study work, and draws on a variety of learning media. Our careful balance of learning methods is not just enjoyable, it helps you learn, remember and apply the key skills of negotiation.
