Why book this course?
Recent research states that the process of modern negotiation can involve anything up to seven people, from key decision makers to finance to procurement. Successfully engaging with all of them means having a broad set of communication skills, and knowing when and how to say ‘no’.
The course covers the fundamentals of successful sales negotiations - when to negotiate, key principles behind the process and how to deal with tactics or power play.
