STRATEGIC EXECUTIVE COURSE ON: NEGOTIATION & CONFLICT RESOLUTION
Training Date: August 6 -17, 2018
Location: DoubleTree Hotel, Galleria, Houston, Texas,USA
In everyday life, we negotiate personally and professionally. Governments, communities, labor unions, companies and businesses negotiate in various capacities. However, the basics of negotiations are the same. Conflicts may arise or escalate when we fail to resolve the interests been pursued during negotiation process. In this regard we start working towards resolving the conflict so it won’t get to the phases of mediation, arbitration or litigation. The principles of effective negotiation and conflict resolution are very important in inter-governmental dealings, business and professional relationship and this is what this training will aim to teach participants.
