Communication skills have long been recognised as essential to professional success and many a career has stalled, faltered or stagnated thanks to a lack of communication skills. Contrary to urban myth, few of us are born with this skill, instead most have either practised or learned from mistakes. This course is designed to assist delegates to improve their communication skills and in consequence their ability to work with others.

Mediation skills are subtly yet meaningfully different. Excellent communication is a pre-requisite but more important is the ability to listen and take note of what is being said. The role of the mediator is to help parties reach a solution to their problem and to arrive at an outcome that both parties are happy to accept. Mediators avoid taking sides, making judgements or giving guidance. They are simply responsible for developing effective communications and building consensus between the parties. This course also covers the wider range of skills, in addition to communication, that are required to be an effective mediator.

Change management is a process aimed at effectively implementing change within an organization to achieve desired goals and adapt to changing environments. It requires understanding the reasons why change is necessary and identifying areas that need modification, as well as clearly defining the objectives and benefits that the change will bring. Change management is a dynamic process that demands flexibility, openness to feedback, and readiness to adjust strategies based on people's reactions and changing conditions. It is also crucial to recognize that changes are not always easy, which is why it is important to create a plan that takes into account both organizational goals and individual needs during the change process.

The Ishikawa Diagram, also known as the fishbone diagram or cause-and-effect diagram, is a tool created by Kaoru Ishikawa. It is used to visually depict the potential causes of a specific event or problem, facilitating the analysis of the factors that might contribute to a particular issue. The diagram resembles the skeleton of a fish, hence the name "fishbone," and is used to identify and organize the causes of an issue systematically. It is particularly useful in product development and quality management processes, where identifying the root causes of problems is crucial. The Ishikawa Diagram helps teams brainstorm and categorize causes, such as methods, machinery, materials, manpower, and environment, to find the root cause of a quality or performance proble​m

Cultural differences can have a significant impact on teamwork. Different cultures may prefer different communication styles, such as direct, indirect, expressive, or more evasive. This may lead to differences in the interpretation of messages. Gestures, tone of voice, and words used can have different meanings in different cultures. Something that is acceptable in one culture may be offensive in another. Different cultures may have different approaches to hierarchy in the workplace. Some cultures may be more hierarchical, where decisions are made by people higher up in the hierarchy. Cultures differ in their approach to working time and deadlines. Some cultures may value punctuality more, while others may be more flexible. Different cultures may have different approaches to conflict. Some cultures may avoid confrontation, while others may prefer open conflict resolution. In some cultures, decisions are made after consultation and team discussions, while in others decisions are made by a single leader. Different cultures have different perceptions and approaches to diversity. It is important to build awareness and respect for cultural differences in the workplace. In teamwork, it is crucial to understand and respect cultural differences. Building an atmosphere of open communication, respect and flexibility in accepting diversity can help manage cultural differences and create an effective work environment. This also opens the door to benefiting from diversity through diverse perspectives and ideas.

Course Overview

The target audience for this course comprises mid-level and senior managers who already possess some negotiation experience. Our goal is to develop more advanced methods to make us more effective negotiators. This course builds on the participants' existing knowledge to further enhance their skills and transform them into stronger, more experienced negotiators.

A win-win strategy focuses on finding solutions where both parties feel successful, rather than just concentrating on individual needs. This approach helps establish long-term relationships and partnerships—including with clients, suppliers, and within our own organizations—which lay a positive foundation for future negotiations. If you dominate in negotiations but later find that you still need to work with the same organization, future business will become difficult.

We aim to help senior managers leverage their strengths and experiences to further develop their natural abilities and use practical negotiation frameworks. You will learn to approach every negotiation with a plan and gain the knowledge and confidence to achieve your goals. This highly interactive and engaging course teaches negotiation skills from some of the world's top business schools.
