Aim

To give delegates the knowledge, skills and confidence to improve their performance in all forms of negotiations, from day-to-day issues with colleagues, customers, contractors and suppliers through to contract negotiations

setting realistic targets;

preparing and managing opening positions;
listening effectively;
looking for ‘added value’;
using proven persuasion techniques;
planning and managing concession trading;
avoiding common mistakes and omissions;
effectively closing the deal.

Institute of Leadership and Management Endorsed Award

This course is one of a suite of 3 contracting training courses. If delegates take all three courses consecutively, they can take a short assessment at the end of day 3, for which successful candidates will receive an ILM Endorsed Award Certificate

Description

Facilities Managers and their staff need to negotiate with colleagues, customers, contractors and suppliers on a daily basis. Negotiations will be conducted with and against highly experienced negotiators determined to achieve their own targets and goals. How can you prepare for negotiation? What tactics should be deployed to minimise risk and fully exploit opportunities?

In this highly practical course the speaker takes you through an innovative approach to negotiation training, based on individual negotiating styles and behaviour. He helps you to analyse your own styles and to understand how you can maximise the strengths those styles possess and to minimise the potential damage to your positions arising from the negative aspects of the same styles. He also describes proven negotiation techniques and how and when to apply them in reaching a successful deal.

There will be plenty of interaction, including a role-play simulated negotiation, and a sound basis for future personal development action plans.
