Novidian Corporation Offers Tips on Negotiation
Free Objective White Papers Available
HANOVER, MA (PRWEB) SEPTEMBER 11, 2003...Children are the worlds best negotiators, mostly because they know what they want and wont take no" for an answer. Negotiating is an integral part of life, and something that businesses in particular need to know how to do well.
Novidian Corporation, the Hanover, MA based solutions provider for franchisers and emerging companies, is offering a free, objective and informational white paper on negotiation, expanding upon the following tips:
· There are three critical factors in every negotiation. Power, information and time. Know which you possess in abundance.
· Different people want different things. Learn your opponents stated goals and state your goals. Gather information on your opponent and his/her needs.
· Never narrow negotiations down to just one issue. Reach for compromise in every issue. Remember, price is not always all-important.
· The proper mesh" of personality types is important to negotiating success. Learn your own and your opponents personality type -- obliging, logical, extrovert or pragmatic.
· Learn how to read body language. Fiddling with glasses, cigar, paper clip, pen, etc. signals I need more time," whereas scratching the head signals, Im uncomfortable with the discussion."
· Never negotiate over the telephone because you cant see your opponent to read body language. Watch for sudden changes in body language rather than just the body language itself.
· Listen for conversational clues -- statements that may mean the opposite include in my humble opinion..." or that are deceptive such as, Im just a country boy..." or those that precede major announcements: As youre aware..."
We are negotiating all the time. I learned about this approach to negotiation from Roger Dawson, author of 'The 24 Guiding Principals of Negotiating. There are predictable responses that you can count on in the negotiation process. Learning how to negotiate better positions you and your company for short and long-term success," noted Andrew Palmer, Vice President of Novidian and author of When Negotiating, Think Like a Kid!"
