Next Steps

 

Scotwork - The Next Steps

 

Following on from the massive success and return on investment established with the Scotwork Advanced Negotiation skills course, the Scotwork Next Steps program allows particpants to drill down further, refresh and supplement their negotiating skills and develop a better understanding of the strategic framework within which their long term relationships operate. Participants will also gain valuable knowledge on how to help coach others within their own organization to get better results from their negotiations.

 

The course follows the same method and style of the Advanced program and is intense, thought provoking and memorable.

 

Scotwork - The Next Steps is appropriate for those who have participated in the Scotwork Advanced Negotiating Skills course. If participants have not attended this course then it appropriate that they should attend at least 6 months prior to participating in The Next Steps.

 

Following the course participants will be able to:

 

  • Fit negotiations into a broad strategic business picture

  • Understand Buyer and seller behavior in the negotiation framework

  • Recognize and deal with negotiation tactics

  • Have an advanced planning tool to aid negotiations

  • Use a diagnostic tool to validate decision making

The course is offered in two formats, in-house training and open (public) courses:

In-house training


With our in-house training, we work with you to select the most appropriate dates for courses, find an appropriate venue (typically off-site) and we put programs together focused around your organization's key negotiating issues and goals. We get to know your business beforehand so that the skills coaching on the program is directed towards your group's key challenges, and where necessary relates to their terminology and systems.

The program is delivered by two Scotwork consultants for up to 12 participants, so there is a great participant to tutor ratio. The standard timetable is intensive and fast-paced, and runs across 3 days.


Contact us to discuss your organization's needs and see if this is the right option for your team.

Open (public) courses


We offer regular Open programs across the US and North America (for offices around the world click here). This format is ideal where it is not possible for groups of 12 members of your team to be in training in the same week, or where organizations wish to trial the program before a roll-out across the team.

Many of our participants also enjoy the opportunity to work with people from other backgrounds, roles and organizations. We only accept up to three people from each organization onto each Open course, to ensure that a diverse mix of people is represented.

These courses typically run for 3 days and are intensive, practical and fun. We take a maximum of 12 participants, so just like the in-house programs, the 6:1 participant to tutor ratio provides for plenty of personal feedback, and you will spend 80% of your time in practical activities.

 

A place on a Next Steps Open course in the US costs $3630 plus any T&E or facility fees for the participant.
