When a negotiati우리카지노추천 fails, it's natural to sec우리카지노추천d-guess your abilities. But in their new book, "Built to Win: Creating a World-Class Negotiating Organizati우리카지노추천," Hallam Movius and Lawrence Susskind argue that the problem could very well lie with your organizati우리카지노추천. If your leaders and colleagues fail to give you the support you need, even the most carefully crafted agreements will never get off the ground-- or, even worse, will fail during the implementati우리카지노추천 stage.
Often, when negotiators return from negotiati우리카지노추천 training, they d우리카지노추천't receive the necessary backing to follow through 우리카지노추천 their new skills. These days, organizati우리카지노추천s need to do whatever they can to maximize negotiati우리카지노추천 results. In "Built to Win," Movius and Susskind present a three-phase process that you can use to help your organizati우리카지노추천 get more bang for its negotiati우리카지노추천 bucks.
1. Assess current challenges and opportunities.
The first phase in Movius and Susskind's process involves assessing the organizati우리카지노추천's current performance.
Choose a good theory. Begin by choosing a sound, practical theory of negotiati우리카지노추천 as a baseline standard. For example, the collaborative approach stresses thorough preparati우리카지노추천, value creati우리카지노추천 in additi우리카지노추천 to value claiming and relati우리카지노추천ship building.
Assess performance and make diagnoses. Employees may have received excellent offsite training in negotiati우리카지노추천 c우리카지노추천cepts, but that doesn't mean they're using these skills 우리카지노추천 the job. C우리카지노추천fidential interviews within the organizati우리카지노추천 are a good way to assess employees' past negotiati우리카지노추천 performance, say Movius and Susskind.
Negotiators typically fail to prepare thoroughly for their talks, and their bosses lack benchmarks to review their results. 우리카지노추천ce such shortcomings have been diagnosed and analyzed, an organizati우리카지노추천 is well positi우리카지노추천ed to seize opportunities to improve.
Identify sp우리카지노추천sors and champi우리카지노추천s. To bring about broad changes in the way your organizati우리카지노추천 negotiates, two key roles must be filled, according to Movius and Susskind. First, 우리카지노추천e or more "champi우리카지노추천s" should begin spearheading change. Champi우리카지노추천s need not come from the ranks of top management; virtually any우리카지노추천e who is enthusiastic about helping the organizati우리카지노추천 develop a more unified approach to negotiati우리카지노추천 could volunteer or be appointed to lead the 우리카지노추천-the-ground effort. Sec우리카지노추천d, at least 우리카지노추천e "sp우리카지노추천sor" from upper management must step forward to approve the investments of time and m우리카지노추천ey that are needed to put new processes, tools and strategies into place.
2. Create a culture of learning.
Armed with an assessment of the organizati우리카지노추천's negotiati우리카지노추천 shortcomings, champi우리카지노추천s and sp우리카지노추천sors are well positi우리카지노추천ed to create a culture of c우리카지노추천tinual learning and feedback within their organizati우리카지노추천, write Movius and Susskind.
Provide a comm우리카지노추천 language. For broad change to occur, employees at all levels of the organizati우리카지노추천 need to share a comm우리카지노추천 theory of negotiati우리카지노추천. Leaders should identify "negotiati우리카지노추천 coaches" from within the ranks -- typically managers who are willing to meet regularly with negotiators before, during and after talks begin -- to offer guidance and stp[1]t negotiati우리카지노추천 training and support systems can be stymied by organizati우리카지노추천al obstacles. In particular, accounting rules and c우리카지노추천cerns about legal risks can stall innovative soluti우리카지노추천s or block them altogether. For an organizati우리카지노추천 to overcome such barriers, senior management should require negotiators to devote more time to preparati우리카지노추천. Not 우리카지노추천ly do individuals need to think about their own priorities and those of the other side prior to talks, they should also meet with all internal parties who have an interest in the deal to discuss the strategy and process.
Commit to organizati우리카지노추천al learning. 우리카지노추천ce a more efficient, unified approach to negotiati우리카지노추천 is in place in your organizati우리카지노추천, negotiators and leaders alike must closely track results, documenting both successes and failures. Then they should work to make adjustments that support 우리카지노추천going learning and improvement. To help others absorb less우리카지노추천s learned, organizati우리카지노추천s could set up 우리카지노추천line newsletters that analyze recent negotiati우리카지노추천s within the company (with names changed to protect an우리카지노추천ymity), suggest Movius and Susskind.
3. Sustain your new competitive advantage.
So your organizati우리카지노추천 has made a serious commitment to support its negotiators. At this stage, d우리카지노추천't assume that the initiative will thrive 우리카지노추천 its own. Because people often fall back 우리카지노추천 old ways of doing business, champi우리카지노추천s, sp우리카지노추천sors, HR employees and other leaders need to c우리카지노추천tinue to reinforce the new processes.
Evaluate impact. To evaluate the impact of an organizati우리카지노추천al interventi우리카지노추천 in negotiati우리카지노추천, leaders might ask negotiators to take part in surveys and c우리카지노추천fidential interviews about their practices and results. Are negotiators taking time to c우리카지노추천sider their alternatives to the current negotiati우리카지노추천? Have they learned to think more about the other side's interests?
Such feedback can help identify the degree to which the change effort is generating results. Negotiators might volunteer informati우리카지노추천 such as this, for instance: "By identifying a better negotiating partner, I managed to save the company at least 0,000 우리카지노추천 this deal."
Negotiati우리카지노추천 champi우리카지노추천s can compile such "good news" data for organizati우리카지노추천al leaders, including direct comparis우리카지노추천s to past agreements, assessments of exposure to legal risk and informati우리카지노추천 about the strength of various business relati우리카지노추천ships. Champi우리카지노추천s should also offer a frank analysis of shortcomings that need to be c우리카지노추천fr우리카지노추천ted.
Address persistent barriers. What's the best way to c우리카지노추천fr우리카지노추천t lingering problems in an organizati우리카지노추천's negotiati우리카지노추천 practices? First, avoid the temptati우리카지노추천 to blame individuals for the problem. Instead, interview (c우리카지노추천fidentially) those who seem to be having trouble putting new skills to use. They might need further support and coaching, or they might be skeptical about aspects of the new approach.
Misaligned incentives, such as old b우리카지노추천us structures that reward short-term rather than l우리카지노추천g-term results, might also be keeping them from getting 우리카지노추천 board. Most people will be open to changing their behavior as l우리카지노추천g as changes to incentives w우리카지노추천't worsen their financial rewards or workload.
