NEGOTIATION SKILLS FOR BUSINESS ADVISORS
​
Never before has reality sent us a loud and clear message on a daily basis: negotiation is the unfailing missing link in everyone's personal and professional training to understand, manage and resolve any crisis or conflict situation in a proactive rather than destructive, cooperative rather than competitive manner.
The illusion is to believe that talent, intuition and improvisation are enough to deal with any negotiation, but this is not the case. Negotiating effectively is an Art that requires skills, specific competencies, methodology and lots of practice, but above all a deep understanding of oneself and of human nature, with its dynamics and specificities.
Theory and Practice (16 hours live online - 16 hours in-person) - live online
Negotiation is also called a Science and an Art because its learning requires study and application. The first part of the course includes an explanation of the fundamentals, flanked by practical preparatory exercises.
​
Workshop - simulation of a multilateral negotiation (16 hours) – Face-to-face
One of the added values of the International School of Negotiation is the presence of the permanent laboratory (ISN LAB): an interdisciplinary environment and working model, based on simulations of case studies built by reworking real cases.
​
Training activity task + LAB prepare to deal with complex negotiations through in-depth knowledge of negotiation processes:
-
How to prepare and conduct a negotiation
-
Styles and tactics to use and mistakes to avoid during a negotiation
-
How to generate options and be creative in negotiation
-
Understanding the different negotiation style and management of our negotiating partners in negotiation
-
Recognize communication and behavioral patterns appropriate for different cultures and genders
-
Be aware of how people make decisions
-
Manage relationships by exerting influence through acquired negotiation skills and mindset
​
Objectives
To improve the ability to build cooperative relationships through awareness of one's knowledge, skills and experience (rational aspects) and one's feeling and being (emotional, character and cultural aspects) in any interpersonal context.

Negotiation and persuasion:
how to get the other person to say “yes"
Negotiation is the way to connect with the other person through active listening, empathy, and the right words. Simple to say, but not easy to put into practice.
Acquiring these interaction skills requires methodological preparation, constant training, and lots of experience in the field.
Jack Cambria shares his long experience as a professional negotiator (more than 33 years as a negotiator on the New York Department's elite Hostage Negotiation Team) and teaches us how to approach complex negotiations based, not only on intuition and pesonal experience, but primarily through the use of empathic communication, negotiation strategies and techniques to find mutually satisfying solutions.
Contents
The fundamentals of negotiation
The ethics of persuasion
The 4 stages of effective negotiation.
-
The principles of negotiation
-
The rule of the 3 “E's” and the 3 “A's”
-
Words to avoid and proper sentence formulation
-
Move from the “what” to the “how” to conclude successful negotiations and open and maintain profitable long-term relationships.
Goals
Achieve satisfactory solutions for all parties (win-win) through the use of refined persuasion tools.

A concrete and enabling way of training. You acquire knowledge, method and techniques essential for negotiating professionally, combining hard and soft skills to enhance your “Human and Life Abilities.”
