We negotiate every day in our personal and professional lives, whether to meet our needs, resolve conflicts, or make decisions with others. Nowhere does this show up more than in our career-related negotiations, which are both consequential and challenging on many levels, practical and emotional. This session explores the negotiation challenges we face and provides tips, strategies, and skills to help avoid pitfalls and overcome these challenges. The session is experiential, interactive, informative, and fun.
