How to Negotiate Anything
This course will teach you how to negotiate and resolve conflicts. Whether you want to buy a car or convince a loved one which restaurant to select for dinner, we face daily situations that create conflict as we attempt to communicate with others. As humans, we all have different opinions on what we think is correct. Real-life examples will be used with some role play situations.
