Normalizing Negotiations: Why you dislike it and how to embrace it. March 19, 2009

Join Women Entrepreneurs of Oregon as we launch an exciting four-month series of Lunch & Learn events! WEO's monthly Lunch & Learn events are designed to give you big bang for your buck by bringing in speakers to discuss the nitty-gritty details of running a business.

Most people have an aversion to situations that require negotiation. As a result some cower while others rant. This presentation, by professional mediator, Chris Sheesley, MA of In-Accord, Inc., will help you become more comfortable with core negotiation concepts. You will learn how to accept some of the universal traits of bargaining. Additionally, you will have an opportunity to learn how to improve both your position and the relationship with your negotiation partner.

Goals:

- Examine some negotiation "truths"
- Expose negotiation roadblocks
- Explore negotiation solutions

$5/members, $10/guests.
