Win-Win Negotiations:
Developing the Mindset, Skills and Behaviours of Win-Win Negotiators
We all negotiate every day, yet few people ever learn how to negotiate. Those who do usually learn a win-lose approach that is only useful in a one-off negotiation where you will never see the other person again. However, such transactions are becoming increasingly rare, because most of us deal with the same people repeatedly – our spouses and children, our friends and colleagues, our customers and clients. In today's interdependent world of business partnerships and long-term relationships, a win-win outcome is fast becoming the only acceptable result.
While we hear much talk about the coveted win-win outcome, this result is actually not common. Most negotiations will never result in a win-win outcome because of certain common negotiation mistakes and misconceptions. The win-lose mindset is so pervasive that it seems natural for many people.
Win-win negotiators value their business and social relationships. They understand that maintaining their winning relationships is just as important as negotiating winning agreements. They consistently achieve win-win results by using a set of win-win negotiating skills and techniques. You too can develop a win-win negotiator's mindset and discover that negotiating can be both fun and rewarding.
