Negotiating the Workplace: Real World Lessons in Navigating Emotion, Risk and Resolution◢
Overview
The art of navigating the workplace is often the art of negotiating difficult personalities—from that unfair boss you might have had early in your career, to that direct report who you just can’t seem to get to engage. In this session, Aaron Goldstein distills twenty-three years of employment litigation, advice and counsel into a practical, deeply human framework for HR professionals who negotiate every single day—whether they realize it or not.
Join us for insights and strategies including:
• People operate on emotion, not reason. Relate to them accordingly.
• Let go of “winning” to start getting what you want.
• Information is your most valuable resource. But what information?
• The one rule that will unlock the hidden talent of good faith employees and allow you to fire bad faith employees.
You’ll walk away with a toolkit for navigating and negotiating that’s grounded not in argument, but in emotional intelligence, human behavior and practical risk assessment.
