Negotiation Skills

It has been said that you don't get what you deserve in life ... you get what you negotiate. Sound familiar?

Negotiation is all about getting more of what you want and need through interaction with others. It is a skill that we practice virtually every day. These programs are designed for all professionals who regularly interface (and thereby negotiate) with those around them – customers, co-workers, vendors, and everyone else.

Training Approach and Methodology

All ClarityWorks training programs are highly-interactive, and follow accelerated learning principles.  They are filled with exercises, case studies and assessments which act to both enhance and stimulate the learning process.  Whenever possible, programs are facilitated by two ClarityWorks consultants, thus providing participants with the additional benefit of multiple voices / perspectives.

The use of accelerated learning techniques and processes throughout our programs ensures that all sessions are as informative and impactful as they are fun.  Through the use of lectures, activities, group discussions, and role plays, participants are actively involved in their own learning process.

The content of all ClarityWorks workshops is tied directly to the client’s mission, vision, values and goals.  In addition, all participants leave ClarityWorks workshops with a list of “Action Items” and a “Personal Action Contract”.  These tools aid in the implementation of lessons learned, and simplify follow-up, thus increasing ROI.
