Salary Negotiation
2008-03-13 14:29:00 Do you know what you are worth, professionally? How much should you be paid in dollars? What about non-monetary pay? Can you demonstrate your value to employers? What dollar value will the employer assign to you (if you let them)? What salary are you willing to accept in exchange for your time and expertise? A few of you probably think you are worth a lot; some either don't know or don't feel they are worth more than an employer is offering. After impressing upon the employer that you are the right person for the job, the bottom line becomes money- your labor in exchange for the employer's cash and benefits. How, then, are you going to deal with these questions in order to get more than the employer may initially be willing to offer?As a recruiter, salary negotiations are tough. I have the advantage of knowing what the salary range is and it is my job to get a person to accept within that range.

Credit card debt negotiation
2008-03-04 22:43:00 Credit card debt is really a menace and a lot of people are facing it around the globe. Credit card debt consolidation and bank loans are well known as ways of reducing and eliminating credit card debt. In all this confusion, credit card debt negotiation almost gets forgotten. Well, credit card debt negotiation starts right from your credit accounts where you have the most hard-hitting credit card debt. This means credit card debt negotiation has to be taken up with your current credit providers. Before you misinterpret it, let me clarify that we are not talking about chucking off a portion of your debt through credit card debt negotiation. We are talking primarily about using credit card debt negotiations for getting the APR on your current credit cards reduced to some lower figure. So, credit card debt negotiation is about talking to your current credit card suppliers for informing them about your intention to clear off your credit card debt and using your skills (credit card debt...

New Car Negotiation, Price Quotes, and Finance Advice
2008-02-27 06:10:00 I first must say something that many do not want to hear. The job of a Car Salesman is to sell their car at the highest price possible and the customer is trying to buy the car at the lowest price possible. This is automatically set up to cause conflict, but you must realize a car salesman is hired and trained to make the dealership money. This makes some angry, but think about your own job. You are hired to make your boss or your company more money. If you are in customer service, your job is to make customers happy so they spend more and come back more often. If you work on an assembly line, your job is to perform your job as fast as possible to make more units at a lower cost per unit so your company can make more money. Any job you think of is in place to make the company money unless you work for a not for profit organization.When you understand that a car salesman is there to do a job, it will be a lot easier to haggle and get a better price. Let me say this though. If your sa...

Negotiation Style
2008-02-22 17:14:00 The Bully StyleAn easily identifiable style is that of the bully. He is powerful, commands attention and has a high energy level. His modus operandi is to push for action, is usually loud, and is confrontational. He is totally insensitive to the feelings and needs of others, wanting to attain his own outcomes at all cost.The advantages of this style are that he commands attention for a key point, and that negotiation can be brought to a rapid close.Unfortunately, this style of negotiator will miss subtle points in the negotiation which could adversely affect the outcome, and has an: it is my way or the highway attitude.Nonverbal characteristics of this type are an exaggerated posture of leaning forward, excessive use of pointing, and very direct eye contact.This style is very limited in its usefulness, and certainly does not encourage a win/win outcome.The ManipulatorAlthough not lacking in empathy as much as the Bully, the Manipulator still has a disregard for the feelings of other...

Elements that affect negotiation
2008-02-22 13:43:00 Communications: be careful about using the phone, e-mail, and other nonvisual communication vehicles. A lack of facial expressions, vocal intonation, and other cues can result in a negotiation breakdown. Constantly reiterate your interest in the other side's concerns and your determination to find a mutually satisfactory resolution.Personalities: be conscious of aspects of your personality such of your own needs and interpersonal style as well as the other person's personality; these factors will play a key role and understanding yourself will be an important factorYour own personality and style: how much you trust the person; how free with your emotions; how much you want to conceal or reveal;Physical space: sometimes where the negotiation takes place can be important; are we negotiating in a space we are uncomfortable and other is comfortable?Past interaction: if there is a history of conflict resolution with this person, think about how this history might affect the upcoming ne...

Kinds of Bargaining/Negotiation
2008-02-22 13:34:00 The Two Most Important Kinds of Bargaining: Distributive (win-lose) vs. Integrative (win-win)Distributive (also called competitive, zero sum, win-lose or claiming value).one side "wins" and one side "loses."there are fixed resources to be divided so that the more one gets, the less the other gets.one person's interests oppose the others.the dominant concern in this type of bargaining is usually maximizing one's own interests.dominant strategies in this mode include manipulation, forcing, and withholding information. Integrative (collaborative, win-win or creating value).there is a variable amount of resources to be divided and both sides can "win."dominant concern here is to maximize joint outcomes.dominant strategies include cooperation, sharing information, and mutual problem solving. This type is also called "creating value" since the goal here is to have both sides leave the negotiating feeling they had greater value than before.

Essential steps for Negotiation
2008-02-22 13:19:00 Negotiation is not a process by which you try to destroy the other party. Rather, it is a process by which you reach a certain result. Good negotiation occurs when all parties are truthful, and they connect and interact successfully with each other. Good negotiation cannot happen if either party is trying to boost their ego in the process. People can win while helping the other person get what they want.We were born to negotiate just as we were born to walk. You may not even realize that you are negotiating when you talk to business associates, friends, children, and anyone in your communication realm. Some people think negotiation is confrontational. Good negotiation is not confrontational, and you really can negotiate ?win-win? results.Preparation is the key to being a good negotiator. If you are not prepared, you may not be able to explain the results you want, you may not be able to evaluate all the issues and alternatives, and you may give up too soon. There are certain essenti...

Reduce the Moving Expenses - A General Negotiation Tip
2008-02-20 17:30:00 We are moved in to our new apartment and pretty much all settled at this point. Thanks to my wife, everything went extremely smooth. She not only helped coordinate everybody to help with packing, but she also found a good moving company to do the actual moving. Just to give you an idea of how efficient the whole thing went, we got married on Saturday Feb 9 with nothing packed, rested the whole day Sunday and was in the new apartment by Tuesday Feb 12. So before I say anything else, I’ve got to say THANK YOU to my wonderful wife! (Okay, on with the article…) Thinking back, there would be one thing we thought could’ve been better, which was having a smaller moving bill! The moving company told us that they charge $100 / hr for their service from the get go. When asked about what the total charge would be, the mover told us that it is quite difficult to calculate it since they haven’t seen our place and don’t know how long it will take. He went on ...

Win-Win Negotiation
2008-02-11 12:47:00 Win-Win Negotiation - Finding a fair compromise Negotiation skills help you to resolve situations where what you want conflicts with what someone else wants. The aim of negotiation is to explore the situation to find a solution that is acceptable to both parties.There are different styles of negotiation, depending on circumstances. Where you do not expect to deal with people ever again and you do not need their goodwill, then it may be appropriate to ?play hardball?, seeking to win a negotiation while the other person loses out. Many people go through this when they buy or sell a house ? this is why house-buying can be such a confrontational and unpleasant experience. Similarly, where there is a great deal at stake in a negotiation (for example, in large sales negotiations), then it may be appropriate to prepare in detail and use a certain amount of subtle gamesmanship to gain advantage.Both of these approaches are usually wrong for resolving disputes with people you have an ongoing...
