How to Negotiate with Americans

Dealing
and doing business with Americans can be frustrating. They think
differently, they can
be arrogant, the timing of business is often different, and building
relationships can be difficult. They can be the most difficult
people to negotiate with in the world, but America is the biggest
market in history, and if you want your part of it, you’d
better know the ins and outs of the system.
In “How
to Negotiate with Americans” we explain the
differences in how Americans think and how they will most commonly
react in negotiations. Thus allows you to prepare and avoid common
mistakes.
This comprehesive program
involves simulation exercises, as well as extensive sessions on
planning. The programs
are taught personally by Bob Gibson, a specialist in negotiation
worldwide since 1986, when Negotiation Resources was formed.
While
each session is different, depending on delivery location, certain
aspects of the program remain universal:
