How to get to 'Yes' - negotiation course

How to get to 'yes'

Wed 22nd May - 1.15-5.15pm

Negotiation is a key skill both in the business world, but also in life. It is not about getting your own way, or giving in, it is about reaching an agreement, or a good outcome for all the parties concerned. This course will introduce you to negotiation skills and how to reach a win-win situation, whilst encouraging you to reflect on your own personal style and how you can use that to your best advantage when negotiating. For more information, please see www.york.ac.uk/careers/ya. To book a place search for this event in the Interactive Careers Service
