We negotiate every day in big and small ways without realizing the engrained negotiation
behaviors that we are bringing to the table with us. Often negotiation is thought of as “If I want to get what I want, you cannot get what you want” which ends up being stressful and often damaging to relationships. This training aims to teach you the framework that allows you to negotiate for what you need and preserve good relationships with the ones you are negotiating with.

Join us to learn how to shift away from “win/lose” negotiations and start negotiating collaboratively.

On March 23rd, Tech Networks of Boston (TNB) will host a free Nonprofit Roundtable session featuring Nupur Amin of Habitus Incorporated.

The core collaborative negotiation course provides a foundational understanding of the different kinds of negotiating styles and discusses how to determine which is most strategic. We then explore the framework of collaborative negotiation, which moves away from the win-lose/”divide a fixed pie” mindset and focuses on methods to “expand the pie”. This training will focus on the first and most important step to effective negotiation – understanding interests. These sessions are highly interactive and require generous participation both in large groups and smaller breakout rooms.
