Negotiation - The Art of Influencing Outcomes

How often do you put yourself last - letting others take the credit, have the benefit, or cut in front of the queue just because they asked? While there are certainly times when being considerate is the right choice, there are times when there is no reason to NOT stand up for yourself. No more staying safe, staying silent, or simply going with the flow. It's time you advocate for YOU and what you care about, because what you stand for, matters. This game-changing session gives you the chance to practice real negotiation skills through a series of fun, low-stake simulations that will help you become more confident in advocating up for yourself anytime, anywhere, with anyone. **WHO THIS IS FOR** * people who want to get ahead in life * people who want to communicate with greater confidence * entrepreneurs, business owners, and corporate professionals **WHAT YOU WILL GET** * more stamina when it comes to negotiating * meaning connections with people who remind you of what you're about * real conviction and passion to make decisions that serve your needs best **ABOUT THE HOSTS** ***Melissa Paris*** is an arts educator, director, performer, and facilitator with over 20 years of experience across higher education and the creative industries.

I've been in IT forever, even before it was called IT, as was known as the EDP department. Starting in 1984, just after the first PC came out, I've seen and been involved in so much change in IT, that its unrecognizable from the time I started. I remember Windows NT4, Windows 3.1, SQL 6.0 , floppy disks and a number of others that are now consigned to history. To be part of the community, is very rewarding, and I've always been someone who volunteers, from coaching my son's soccer team, from the U7's, cricket teams, my daughters soccer team, my work with Oxfam. I love community sport events, having done 17 Oxfam trail walks, more than 10 City to Surfs, Countless Gong Rides, Bowral Rides, half a dozen Half marathons, and 20 years ago, the Sydney marathon. Now, its mostly cycling, and my South Sydney Rabbitohs, and now that I can WFH, my labradoodles, Casper and Willow.
