NEGOTIATION TRAINING

Negotiation is a strategically important and frequently needed practical skill that should be practiced. A negotiation is always a new and organic situation, where success requires careful planning, adaptive and active communication, and persuasive argumentation.

In our Realized^® Negotiation Training, you will learn to reach your negotiation goals by thorough planning and managing the negotiation situation through active participation, posing questions, and sensitive communication. A great negotiation outcome and mutual trust is built piece by piece by systematically directing the focus of the negotiation towards the other party’s benefits.

In the Realized^® Negotiation model we learn to recognize the balance of power. Keeping this balance in mind and maintaining the other party’s sense of control ensures a higher level of commitment to the agreement.

Our Realized^® Negotiation Training enables reaching an agreement that is acceptable for both parties even if the initial goals were significantly divergent. Stalemates usually happen only if situational awareness fails or if negotiation skills are lacking. Nevertheless, because no one is perfect, Realized^® Negotiation Training also includes tried and true solutions for resolving stalemate situations.

WINWIN Negotiation^® is an established training method developed by Completo. It has been applied in the training of thousands of negotiators internationally. The negotiation training includes learning a systematic negotiation process as well as psychological know-how of negotiation situations.

WINWIN Negotiation^® skills enable you to systematically control the whole negotiation process, from planning to closing, to reach your goals while maintaining a sense of accomplishment for the other party.

In the negotiation training, you will learn how to have an influence over the opinions and notions of others, how to deal with problems, and how to maintain control of the negotiation. You will learn how to gain the trust of the other party and how to form a mutually desirable result while strengthening your relationship long-term.

Included in the training, your personal Completo DISC WINWIN Negotiation^® Profile describes your natural negotiation methods and competences, and clarifies your strengths and development areas. It has explicit tips on how you can best reach a WINWIN result with different people.

You will also learn a wide range of special negotiation tactics to shift the focus of the negotiation away from the difficult topic of price and towards the entirety of the customer relationship.

The negotiation training is practical by nature. Each participant gets to practice their own negotiation situations and receives plenty of personal development suggestions as well as practical tools for more success in negotiations.
