This course will help participants understand the risk involved in a traditional “win-win” approach to project negotiations and develop a new strategy and supporting tactics that will either assure “satisfaction” on both sides or at least maintain good will if an agreement cannot be reached. They learn to analyze the nature of their satisfaction for every negotiating situation and develop tactics to achieve it.
It begins with a look at the major working styles that may be involved in negotiations and how to approach the negotiation from the viewpoint of the other side’s interests and utilize tactics appropriate for each type. Then we explore the fundamentals of negotiations to identify the skills and concepts that apply in any kind of project setting.
Finally, we identify what a successful relationship with a service or product vendor would look like and how we can establish it on any project. We include suggestions for a Request for Information (RFI), a Request for Proposal (RFP), and developing measurements for subjective “fuzzy” topics.
It does do not discuss developing or negotiating contracts, risk management, nor provide legal advice. Those topics are beyond the scope of this work.
