Getting to Yes – Alvernia University
Note: This class will take place at Alvernia University’s Pottsville campus.
Why take this course?
Getting to Yes covers how an agent can learn to successfully negotiate on behalf of his/her client, without violating fiduciary duties. The goal of every negotiation is win/win. Agents need to consult with their clients to determine the client’s goal and structure a negotiating strategy that will help the client achieve that goal. Agents tend to focus on price, but negotiations are about price, terms, and conditions. Part of a negotiation includes carefully reading the contract as presented and determining, with the client, what is acceptable and what needs to be negotiated.
