Negotiating across cultures
Negotiating across cultures is both rewarding and frustrating. What does trust look like from their side of the table? What does “partner” really mean? And what is the role of the contract and the role of the personal relationship? This practical seminar builds upon your international negotiation skills and challenges you to take them to the next level. Using an “own-case” approach the seminar is ideal for all professionals needing to develop their skills, confidence and outcomes when negotiating with international partners. The program is aimed primarily at professionals with practical negotiating experience.

Training content
Identifying the role culture can play on your negotiations:
- Planning for success by identifying your objectives, limits and tradables.
- Understanding the human, behavioral and cultural aspects of negotiations.
- Applying awareness of key cultural dimensions to your personal negotiation process.
Focusing on classic cultural derailers:
- Rules versus relationships (universalism – particularism).
- Individual needs versus group needs (individualism – communitarianism).
- Displaying emotions and personal feelings (neutral – affective).
- Building relationships (specific – diffuse).
- Remaining authentic while respecting your audience’s cultural preferences.
- Uncovering needs and priorities through culturally-appropriate questioning techniques.
- Dealing with objections and getting past “no” without damaging the relationship.
- Achieving win-win without meeting in the middle.
- Closing the negotiation.
