Dear Colleagues,
The next fully-facilitated Negotiation Skills for Librarians online course
will begin on March 30th 2017. This very practical and highly popular course
is designed for librarians, consortia staff and other information
professionals based within North America (and compatible time zones).
This online course has now been taken by 50+ colleagues in North America and
Australia, and to date all participants have rated it as either 'very good'
or 'excellent'. (I have been delivering the 1-day in-person workshop, on
which this online course is based since 2008, frequently on behalf of UKSG.
During this time, almost 360 information professionals have taken part; most
rated their experience as 'Excellent' and 100% said they would recommend the
workshop to their colleagues).
Key learning goals:
* Learn proven, highly practical negotiations skills and knowledge
which you can use immediately in your professional life
* Learn The Four Cornerstones - four key strategies which underpin all
successful negotiations
* Explore Seven Habits of Effective Negotiation, intelligent
negotiation tactics which will help you get the best deal possible - on
pricing and on terms
* Apply these skills and knowledge to resolve a range of
mini-negotiation situations
* Learn a range of powerful questions to help you keep negotiations on
track - plus a 5-step influencing model designed and used by the FBI!
* Share your negotiation questions, challenges and concerns in a
confidential and supportive environment
* Build your confidence in relation to publisher negotiations
* [optional bonus session] Learn a powerful model for developing your
personal resilience, a capacity proven to enhance negotiation abilities and
outcomes.
From the feedback:
"This was my first online class.and I thought it was terrific. I was afraid
I might not get to know my classmates very well, but that wasn't the case at
all. I think we built a really good class camaraderie! The Ruzuku platform
helped with that, but I think the live weekly webinars were the key. Sarah,
you did such a good job facilitating those..The content was excellent. [I am
seriously going to laminate some of the handouts to keep track of their
points easily!] This was exactly the information I needed, at the pace I
needed it, and at the time I needed it. I don't think I could have asked the
stars to align more perfectly. This course met or exceeded every expectation
I had."
