Negotiation Skills![]() In business or otherwise, you probably do some form of negotiation every single day. But are you getting the most that you can out of it? This award-winning program follows talks between a baseball park and the team that might move there. As they negotiate, you’ll learn when to go after what you want, when to back down, and when to walk away entirely. Once you’ve got the skills to strategize and make offers, you can even sweeten the deal by improving upon agreements after you’ve reached a settlement.

![]() Whether to beat stiff competition in your market, grow customer satisfaction, or pare your bottom line, strategic alliances are increasingly vital to your organization's success. Yet as many as two-thirds of new alliances fail to live up to expectations. Cisco Systems, widely recognized as a global leader in alliance value creation, has developed an effective framework to identify promising new alliances and then structure alliance relationships to optimize their outcome. Mr. Steinhilber explains the many factors that come into play when deciding whether to proceed with a strategic alliance: the investment required, the competitive landscape, market timing, your organization's own product lines and skill set. And once you've decided to strike the deal, Steinhilber describes the formal and informal mechanisms you need to put in place—to persuade your partner to act for mutual benefit, how to overcome the inevitable rough patches in the relationship, and how to ensure your alliances stay focused on what matters. $129.99 [Add to Cart]![]() Best-Seller!

![]() Call it persuading, negotiating or convincing. Ethical influence is the foundation of successful leadership, management, sales, and customer service. Robert Cialdini has spent his career systematically studying the psychology of influence. In this video, he reveals what lies at the heart of his findings: the six principles of influence that form the basis of effective, persuasive appeals. These principles—reciprocation, scarcity, authority, commitment, liking, and consensus—may seem like the jargon of social scientists, but Cialdini brings them to life. In this dynamic presentation, Dr. Cialdini provides clear step-by-step examples of behaviors that you can put to use daily to increase your influence. You will learn why you say yes to some offers, simply based on the way they are presented. And you'll learn how to defend against offers that you're really not interested in, no matter how effectively they're presented. $129.99 [Add to Cart]![]() Negotiations have two dimensions: the creation of value, and the claiming of that value. Negotiators often focus on the value-claiming side, destroying value-creation opportunities in the process. Professor Neale describes the disastrous outcomes that result when negotiators' antagonism and pride obscure their own best interests. She explains how to focus instead on three critical data points: your reservation price, your aspiration price, and your best alternatives to an agreement. You can get a great deal—or you can walk away. Either way, you win. $129.99 [Add to Cart]![]() Negotiation takes place all the time. It plays a vital role in your everyday business and personal life.

![]() Even though everyone negotiates in daily life as well as in business, it is clear that resources are often left "on the table." Contracts and outcomes are not always in the best interests of the negotiator, and there is no real systematic assessment of the quality of the negotiating behavior. Professor Neale identifies systematic ways to increase the quality of negotiated agreements, including methods of preparation and use of rational assumption, bidding, and decision criteria. $129.99 [Add to Cart]![]() Understand Which Strategies To Use When To succeed in a world of rapid change, strategic alliances, and cross-functional work teams, leaders must possess more than one personal management style.

![]() The Negotiation Sourcebook, Second Edition focuses on the needs of active negotiators&emdash;those people asked daily to negotiate with vendors, government officials, and others. The articles cover a cross section of these negotiations and will help to fill in the gaps for those situations that your negotiators may have only limited experience in addressing. There are also a number of articles that provide a theoretical framework for the process, since more than technique is needed to be an effective negotiator. Because we do not negotiate in a vacuum but within the context of a relationship, each of these articles leans towards the problem-solving or collaborative approach. Unfortunately, not everyone readily accepts this model.

![]() Featuring John Cleese, Peter Capaldi and Jennifer Saunders. Release date: 1991
Techniques of assertive behavior are shown in action in a series of different settings from a management meeting to a one-to-one conversation between colleagues. Straight talking shows that the basic rule of assertive behavior is honesty and that it's usually for fear of the response that honesty is avoided. However, this fear is generally over-exaggerated. The video is highly reassuring on this point for anyone who has doubts about volunteering what they think - even when asked to do so. It also demonstrates why aggressive behavior doesn't work in the long run and why it's important to establish a negotiating position and stick to it. The benefits

![]() Wherever two people get together to do a deal, there's the possibility that at least one will end up feeling cheated, angry or resentful, even though both set out believing that they could achieve a solution that would benefit each of them. The program plots the course of a negotiation from first meeting to successful conclusion, using the analogy of the developing relationship of two people. In the case of marriage, the aim is not for either side to win but to reach a mutually beneficial arrangement. Stage by stage the main characters negotiate their way to the altar in scenes that illustrate the training points defined by the presenter. The medium of video is unbeatable for demonstrating the various techniques and body language that can be employed and how emotional behaviour leads to totally unproductive rows. There are also textbook demonstrations of how to deal with threats and ultimatums and to overcome deadlocks. The benefits

![]() Do you want to be a better communicator? You're not alone if you've ever had a tough time getting through to someone. Do you want to be a better communicator? You're not alone if you've ever had a tough time getting through to someone. One of the biggest problems in business today is getting along with and communicating with others. And it's one of the top reasons why most people are limited in their relationships and limited in their ability to communicate well on or off the job. Scientific research shows that people communicate, think, and behave differently. But, when large numbers of people were analyzed research has shown that they generally fall into four categories called behavior or communication styles:
In Part One of this three-part video program you'll learn about these four behavior styles and what's included in them. Part Two teaches you how to identify these styles in others. Part Three talks about how to change your behavior to better communicate with others - what is called being FLEX-able - able to flex out of your style and into the other person's style. Do you remember the golden rule? "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." The golden rule would be great if we were all the same style. But because people are different they want and need to be treated differently. This program teaches you to become FLEX-able and introduces you to The Platinum Rule - "Do unto others as THEY want to be done unto." Program Highlights:
