Objectifs du cours
Effective negotiation is critical in many areas, as the ability to reach mutually satisfactory agreements is a key skill in almost any field. Because of this, developing skills to master the art of negotiation is crucial. Preparation is key, especially when creating consensus and partnerships, as well as improving relationships, both within the participant's organizations and with external partners. Before addressing specific issues, it is necessary to negotiate the process and agenda. In any negotiation, communicating effectively, using active listening skills, and asking relevant questions are vital before presenting persuasive arguments. Establishing common ground before expressing ones own demands is also crucial. In short, participants will gain insights into their own negotiation behaviours and learn when to maintain their approach or adapt it to different contexts
Contexte
Diplomats negotiate all the time. This workshop aims at improving participants’ analytical and interpersonal skills in their continual negotiations to make sure they do first things first. It is important to prepare before action, especially when strong coalitions and consensus are needed, and to improve the quality of relationships, internally through the mandate, and externally with the representatives of other partner states, before any other action. Negotiating the process and agenda is needed before dealing with problems and issues. In a meeting, negotiators must also communicate effectively, and use effective listening before speaking, asking relevant questions before presenting persuasive arguments. They also need to identify common platforms with others, before they express their own demands. In other words, participants will become more aware of how they behave in negotiation contexts, and whether or not they should behave the same way, or differently.
Objectifs d'apprentissage
At the end of the workshop, participants will be able to:
- Analyse how diplomatic negotiations are conducted;
- Use a preparation grid for better negotiation planning;
