Introduction to negotiation
We negotiate every day – for instance, when we purchase services from suppliers, or even when we agree what film to watch on television. We also negotiate in the workplace, whether we realise it or not – for example, when we book our holiday or agree a pay rise. But no negotiation process is worthwhile unless the outcomes and agreements are seen through.
As an internal auditor you negotiate throughout the engagement process. In this course we determine what negotiation is and provide frameworks and techniques for carrying out effective negotiations ultimately achieving joint outcomes that all parties will make happen.
