Negotiation and Conflict Management

Learners enrolled: 844

Negotiation is a method by which people settle differences. It is a process by which compromise or agreement is reached while avoiding argument and dispute.

Negotiation skills are qualities that:

- Allow two or more parties to reach a compromise.

- These are often soft skills and include abilities such as communication, persuasion, planning, strategizing and cooperating.

- Understanding these skills is the first step to becoming a stronger negotiator.

- In any disagreement, individuals understandably aim to achieve the best possible outcome for their position (or perhaps an organization they represent).

- However, the principles of fairness, seeking mutual benefit and maintaining a relationship are the keys to a successful outcome.

Negotiation has to go through many steps, though it seems a simple process but it includes many stages.
