Today’s workplace requires more collaboration than ever before. Honing effective communication skills is essential for success – and well-being – throughout your career. Based on principles developed at the Harvard Negotiation Project by the authors of the bestseller Getting to Yes, this one-day Collaborative Communication Workshop is designed to help graduate students and faculty participants
- Influence people effectively, even when you don’t have direct authority
- Create buy-in for your ideas, even when you do have direct authority
- Ask for what you need – or say no – in a way that does not damage relationships
- Respond to challenges, threats, outbursts, and other difficult behaviors
- Identify and articulate your value effectively
- Prepare strategically for potentially difficult conversations
- Generate creative agreements in order to find “win-win” solutions
We ask that participants commit to attending both halves of the workshop
and to reading Getting to Yes ahead of time (book will be provided).
