Invest in yourself
Oh! The winter blues. It is temporary, I promise. While you are waiting for the Spring, just shrug off the restlessness and invest in yourself.
No, I am not talking about rushing to the gym to develop that chiseled body. I am talking about sharpening your negotiations skills.
Do you know that the world’s greatest leaders share a common trait? They can negotiate skillfully. While some may be born with natural ability, most leaders sharpen their skills over time, usually only after many years of work experience.
I have helped hundreds of executives structure and negotiate better deals, strengthen relationships, instill a strong team spirit within their company and reach the next level, if not the top-level.
Whether you’re an experienced executive or an up-and-coming manager-working in the private or public sector, domestically or abroad-strengthening negotiation skills will help you shape essential deals, negotiate in uncertain environments, claim (and create) more value, and resolve tricky disputes. In short, it will prepare you to achieve better outcomes.
There are several self-proclaimed experts who teach courses in negotiation skills. Most of them are good academicians. My clients hire me to lead or navigate real deals.
