# 66 - The Art of Negotiation

Negotiation is not what we think it is.

Negotiation is a skill that all successful business minds and influencers in society learn, master and successfully apply.

Yet at the same time, it is a crucial skill very few of us are ever taught.

As a result, most of us battle through life and business… ‘winging it’, getting it wrong, damaging relationships, ‘settling for less’, missing out and often making a massive mess along the way.

How to get the very best outcome requires, in my experience, an approach that is counter-intuitive to how we have been taught to play.

In this episode I explore both the art and science of negotiation.
 

We explore:

• what is a negotiation and why it is not what we think!
• how so many ‘get it wrong’
• how careful preparation will avoid costly mistakes
• specifics on what that careful preparation looks like
• how to initiate and enter into the conversation strongly
• how to lead the process well
• how to navigate what can play out
• how to reduce the likelihood of unfavourable outcomes

 

I’ll also share a series of incredibly powerful tools & techniques that can assist you to improve and develop as a compelling & successful negotiator.

The art & science of negotiation, applied well, can have significant impact on each and every relationship you have.

As leaders in business, family, and life, strengthening outcomes and improving relationships is such a critical part of how we succeed and grow.

Once again, enjoy and I look forward to hearing of your successes!

Sincerely,

Jeremy
