WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE

“In business, you don’t get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate!”

This strategic two-day training course is designed to develop power negotiation skills, specifically tailored for the Procurement environment. Developed in partnership with The Negotiation Academy Europe, this course has been successfully presented internationally. Learn how to read the other side by completing a Communication Intelligence Calibration, where you will be provided with a personalised manual which illustrates your communication preferences, and helps you to assess others for maximum impact. Understand and uncover the motives behind the positions people take in negotiations, and learn how to leverage them to craft a winning strategy.

Negotiation is a process of communication to get what you want.
