Negotiation
We negotiate throughout our professional and personal lives — with our superiors, colleagues, trainees, and friends and families. This session will focus on different negotiation styles, which is good in what situation, and how do we negotiate for success while avoiding the pitfalls of implicit biases (Schneider), as well as negotiation from a power differential, especially when you are in a low power position, and tips for making sure one remains true to high ethical standards in negotiation (Kray). Ahead of this session on January 24, participate in the Dynamic Negotiating Approach Diagnostic, a new tool to measure responses to conflict.
