Effective Communication and Negotiation Skill
Why communication?
Communication is an important skill at workplace nowadays. To communicate effectively that requires processes and techniques. In this program, you will learn the fundamental of effective communication skill.
Why negotiation?
We negotiate when we have something to offer or we want something under different terms with the other party. Today’s prospects, customers, and business partners are more educated and prepared, have access to information right away, and have more alternatives available. That causes negotiation more challenging and not easy to achieve in short time.
“Business leaders, managers and especially, salespeople need to have good knowledge and skill in negotiation in order to get new businesses right away with customers, suppliers and partners.”
Negotiation skills boost the performance of experienced executives who want to achieve the next level of effectiveness as a leader and manager.
