Negotiation Skill Courses

Negotiation Skills Seminar

The Ultimate Negotiator^©

The Ultimate Negotiator^© course is an advanced program which provides 25 hours of intense training in tactical preparation and execution.  The negotiation course combines cutting edge behavioral techniques with contemporary negotiation theory.

The  Ultimate Negotiator^© teaches participants how to use behavioral techniques including micro expressions, manipulators, illustrators, emblematic slips, verbal slips, and profiling to get inside the head of the other party.  This workshop is designed specifically for commercial negotiators, not academics; therefore, emphasis is always on practical application.  Information is power.  Participants learn to unlock critical information about the other party’s true position and identify areas of flexibility.

Participants explore their capabilities across a range of negotiating styles represented by “The Wheel of Negotiation” (pictured here).  The program is designed to help participants identify the appropriate style and align their behaviors and strategy to maximize the value of every transaction.

The Ultimate Challenge^©

The Ultimate Challenge is a 2 day course for up to 12 attendees.  The Ultimate Challenge provides an opportunity for attendees to demonstrate their mastery of the skills introduced and developed in “The Ultimate Negotiator”.  The challenge consists of a number of exercises and case studies that test the attendee’s comprehension and application of the core lessons from “The Ultimate Negotiator”.  The Ultimate Challenge provides additional practice through videotaped case studies and review.

The Ultimate Challenge completes the journey around the Wheel of Negotiation taking an in-depth look at High Dependency situations including union negotiations and internal negotiations.
