Description
This short online course will help you understand how to effectively develop and use your influencing, negotiating and networking skills – three skills that can have a positive impact on your professional life.
In our professional lives, we are constantly communicating. We can communicate for many different reasons, but often we are sharing our ideas, discussing work priorities or meeting new people – and the success of these conversations will depend on how we communicate.
This is where our influencing, negotiating and network skills come into play. These aren’t skills that come naturally to everyone, but an understanding of how they work will take you a long way.
Suitable for anyone in any role, our short online course will give you knowledge, insights and techniques to help improve these skills and take you further in your professional life.
The course covers the following topics:
- Negotiating and influencing, the differences and how they are used
- Emotional intelligence
- Communication within influencing and negotiating
- Strategy of influencing and negotiating
- How to network effectively
This course is also included in our 15-course Personal Professional Development Training Package.

Course was very in depth and brought out all salient points without it being too difficult to take in. I know this was an online course but it would be good if you could buy printed book detailing all that is on the course. This would make for easy reference when needed.
