Strategies for Negotiation and Conflict Resolution
2 days
Few skills are as important to employers as the ability to negotiate, persuade and manage conflict. In this session, we examine evidence-based approaches to building agreement between parties.
Overview
This course will introduce how to prepare for negotiation, how to determine whether potential agreements are good or bad, and how to be most persuasive when presenting offers. We will also discuss how to ask questions that lead to open and honest responses from a negotiation counterpart. Presentation of an actual negotiation in a healthcare setting will provide participants with a hands-on opportunity to learn about negotiating styles and other conflict-resolution dynamics.
Learning Objectives
- Enhance participants’ ability to prepare for a negotiation
- Explore ways to evaluate the quality of potential agreements
