It is very important to attend the meetings with attention, because the work in the future will depend on what you agree to.
How well you know your interlocutor will greatly affect the success of the negotiation. It would be helpful to find as much information as possible about the person you are talking to. Not only those related to work, but find out what he likes to do in his free time. This way, you will discover the way he thinks, his convictions, and how the whole meeting can pass in a much more pleasant atmosphere. That way, you will be able to present your idea so that he can understand it from his point of view. In this way, a relationship is created and trust is built.
Often, the goal is to reach an agreement, which then needs to be established. Think about what you want to achieve. You have to think carefully about what you really want from the negotiation. In this way, you build flexibility, and you will be able to offer several options, each of which suits you. The greatest attention must be paid to the details that cannot wait for the next opportunity. When you know what's most important, you'll know what you can't sacrifice. Then, allow a free flow of ideas and thoughts between you.
Always keep in mind that the meaning of communication is in the response we receive. The greater your flexibility, the more options you have, i.e., multiple possible ways to achieve the same goal. If you pay attention to these details, you will always be the one who gets what he wants.
