Getting to Yes: Influencing for Optimal Results

Getting to Yes: Influencing for Optimal Results enables individuals to create mutually satisfying agreements that lead to optimal results for both parties. It also provides a variety of tools that can improve relationships between collaborating parties. Your leaders will be able to:

• Create agreements that are mutually satisfying to both parties
• Separate the people from the problem to prevent people issues from getting in the way of a successful negotiation
• Focus on interests, not positions
• Identify best alternatives to a negotiated agreement and explore how to make offers in a way that maximizes “yes” decisions
• Deal with difficult situations in order to keep negotiations going on a constructive and proactive track
