Course overview.
The Art of Persuasion, Negotiation, and Conflict involves mastering communication and relationship techniques to better assert yourself in the world. At Bonfire, we call this an “art form” because taking everyone’s different needs, wants, aims, and beliefs into account isn’t exactly a walk in the park. It takes some practice (and guidance!).
In any workplace there will always be conflicting demands, differences in opinions, and opposing attitudes when working with clients and internal team members. While this is totally normal and to be expected, it can also pose a rather significant obstacle to progressing relationships. Great news, there are ways to validate each person’s unique experience while also bringing them into agreement.
By completing this workshop, participants will learn the following:
- The difference between manipulation and the science of persuasion
- How to reframe “conflict”. Remember, not all conflict is bad!
- The mindset of this “art” and how it positively impacts communication
- How to stay open-minded and adaptable in order to build trust
What to expect.
What your people will be able to do after the session, and what changes for your organization.
