And during this current period of uncertainty even more so.\u00a0 The demand for increased skills to deal with these new challenges is clear and as a result, Scotwork have launched our ground-breaking multimedia virtual negotiation skills training course.<\/p>\n<p>For 45 years, we have helped our clients strike better deals, resolve conflicts faster, strengthen relationships, and create stronger commercial cultures. Now, we\u2019re helping them do all of that and more, remotely.<\/p>\n<p>While the training is virtual, the learning is real. Our team of expert negotiators will help your team develop critical skills directly from the comfort of anywhere, engaging and coaching just as we\u2019d do in a classroom.<\/p>\n<p>You might argue there has never been a better time to upskill your people.<\/p>\n<p>Around the world, our Governments exalt us to be \u201ckind to each other\u201d and \u201cwork together\u201d. Under normal circumstances we find our needs, wants and objectives at odds with those of others we deal with. Right now, in this time of uncertainty and stress, that\u2019s likely to be even more so, whether this be at work or at home.<\/p>\n<p>Our families, businesses, indeed societies, are like big complex machines. Friction and heat is inevitable. In machines we use lubricants to dissipate heat and minimise friction. The lubricant between people and organisations is the ability to negotiate.<\/p>\n<p>Enabling your people to learn how to negotiate now will not only give them something constructive and useful to do, but also ensure they\u2019ve got the skills and tools to deal with any negotiation, be it now in this time of crisis, or those they\u2019ll face in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Our training is delivered as open public courses where individuals can attend or as dedicated \u201cin house\u201d programmes where the participants are all from one organisation. Whatever your needs we can meet them.<\/p>\n<p>Scotwork NZ is running an open\u00a0<a href=\"\/negotiation-training\/\"><strong>Virtual Advancing Negotiation Skills (VANS)<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>course this week and on 21-23 April and 20-22 May.
