Negotiation Skills


Do you feel being USED?
Are you being thrust to FIGHT for your corners?
Do you want to benefit resources you have little authority upon?
If yes is your answer then all you need is revive your negotiation skills.

Why Do I Need to learn impressive Negotiation Strategies?
Believe it or not, good negotiation can give you a lot more than you anticipate. It helps you to resolve conflicts, disagreements, opinion variances and what not in a way that is beneficial to you and agreeable by the other party! Perhaps, that’s the reason why “Negotiation Strategies” is a major subject in renowned business management institutes of Lucknow and Kanpur.
Negotiation Styles
Although, negotiation has many forms but unfortunately many people remain confined to the two basic negotiating ways; Soft or Hard. The soft negotiator tries to maintain peace and avoid unpleasant arguments and hence often ends up making concessions. Though the negotiation may seems to end up at a positive note but the Negotiation feels used and abused.
In contrary, the hard negotiator fights his way out. He may damage his relationship with the party in order to obtain the required results. The end result is, negotiator feels exhausted, dissatisfied and hostile.
This brings us to a conclusion that neither of the two negotiation styles are the ideal ways to reach the mutually beneficial solution.

 With NCRs like Noida and Faridabad becoming opportunity hubs for many young minds, competition to become more successful in less time is mounting! This gives you another good reason to brush up your negotiating methods.

Correct Negotiation Methods
 Should you imply the correct negotiation strategy to the right situation, the desired result is obtained!  When you are in a job or a business, you cannot afford to lose your client or upset your colleague over a petty dispute. The best approach to resolve the problem is, put your piece of mind in a way that the other party feels positive about it. Positive negotiation is the results of four basic elements; Strategy, process, tools and tactics.

Strategy
Planning a strategy plays an imperative role in keeping the negotiation positive. Right strategy helps you to maintain your focus on the problem keep the possibilities of misunderstandings at the bay.

Process
The only process to continue with negotiation optimistically is you will have to separate the people involved in the situation from the problem. Many times our personal differences with the people involved make a simple issue big and complex hence making it difficult to reach a mutually agreeable solution next to impossible.   

Tools
Your interests are your tools. Focus on them and overlook the positions. Negotiation simply means inventing or creating options that satisfies your interests without offending other party’s welfare.

Tactics
Is the solution you propose meets the objective? This should be the ultimate bottom line of any negotiation result. Abide by and insist the other party to judge the solution based on this criteria only.

Considering these four points will definitely help you to analyze the most stressful situations with great ease.
