Negotiation Skills Training

Negotiation isn’t about arguing harder—it’s about thinking smarter. This course walks you through key negotiation stages, from preparation to follow-up, with strategies suitable for boardrooms, pay reviews, or simply holding your ground without sounding like a game show contestant. You'll explore types of negotiation, essential techniques, and the fine art of saying “no” without burning bridges.

Whether it’s a salary conversation or a strategic deal, knowing what to say (and when to stop talking) is vital.
