We have all used negotiation skills since childhood and have continued to develop skills in adult life, with a partner, or with family members or friends or in team activities like sports, social but that doesn’t mean to say we are any good at it. How have we fared and do we know people who seem to “always get what they want” – why is that? Maybe they are just lucky! Or maybe they have subtle negotiating skills. Maybe we cannot resist others negotiation skills tactics.
Although of critical importance, negotiation skills isn’t restricted to Industrial relation disputes or agreements or supplier/customer contracts, every line manager uses negotiation skills in dealing with day to day operational problems and decision making, i.e. Negotiation skills sit at the heart of human relations.
How much better therefore could human relations, productivity, cost control etc. be, if personnel received negotiation skills training? What other skill is so cost effective?
