The title of his seminar at the Wharton Center at CERT, Abu Dhabi is Getting More: New Negotiation Tools to make your business more competitive.
Program Overview
The business world is notoriously perceived as combative, dominated by an aggressive conflict model of negotiation. Power and leverage are often the name of the game. Using the revolutionary strategies articulated in his New York Times bestselling book, Getting More, Professor Diamond shows how straying from this combative model provides a massive advantage. Counter-intuitive to its core, his process focuses on collaboration and the perceptions and emotions of the other party over facts and logic. In this presentation, you’ll learn how to ask questions of the other party, glean the “pictures in their heads” and ultimately, persuade them. Armed with new persuasive power, you and your business will be more competitive than ever before.
