#Beingaleader means you need to know how to negotiate. The ability to come to an agreement with someone else. To find a resolution. To settle a disagreement. Negotiate.
Negotiation skills include keeping a calm demeanor. Knowing what your final goal is. Knowing what your opponent’s or competitor’s or the person across from the table’s goals are too. Negotiation involves compromise. Negotiation is about hitting your goal. Negotiation is about finding common ground. It’s not always about beating the other person. Most negotiation is finding the space where you are both happy. That’s a skill set you need to learn.
Negotiating is an important skill whether you are a parent of a unwilling child. Whether you are involved in a multi-billion dollar dispute or transaction. Or whether it’s just trying to determine where to eat dinner. All require negotiation. All require your ability to listen clearly. To communicate clearly. To come to a decision so that you don’t have to dwell on the situation too long.
