You had me vying to be on your course, the moment I chanced upon your post - http://www.shenegotiates.com/blog/2011/3/8/negotiating-with-nissan-pay-what-you-want-for-the-car-of-you.html.

I so want to be part of this as I think negotiation skills are the back-bone of Self Empowerment and come handy in all spheres of life. There have been times, I have been left been standing tongue-tied when all I wanted to say was take your stuff and get out of my door (proverbial)..Not any more..

Care,

Liz learned that which we remind ourselves as often as we can. We learn, We practice. We forget. And then . . . later, sometimes much later . . . the transformation occurs. We ask instead of hectoring. We stop feeling like a victim at someone else's mercy and probe for the fear in our negotiation partner that expresses itself in disapproval and back-peddling. We feel we have achieved something important even when it's not the thing we've asked for - more money, a promotion, the support of our family in trying a new career.

The "win" is powerful but it is internal first. We step up to the plate. We take charge. We're senior to the situation. We're respectful or our bargaining partner and s/he becomes more respectful of us.

This is why, against all expectations, a course in negotiation can and does literally transform lives. Do yourself a favor in the new year and sign up for our signature course.

And thanks to Liz for sharing!
