Negotiation skills

Negotiation is essential everywhere. It is not only the corporates where negotiation is important but also in our daily life. Contrary to what some believe, negotiation skills are not about beating the opposition out of the other party. In fact, the best negotiators are ones who can create win-win situations, in which everyone walks out thinking that the deal is a good one.
