No-one absorbs everything the first time, so having a way to review and access resources even weeks later is key to building your skills.

In times of uncertainty and change, people skills are at the heart of strong leadership, impact and influence.

Whether you are a team leader in tech or service, a business leaders, parent, lawyer or activist, people skills are at the core of your success.

If you are in the business of leading any kind of change, of improving any kind of performance, or find yourself responsible for difficult people or challenging situations, “doing your best” is oh so often, just not good enough.

Get some more tools. Get to work practicing. Get better at what you need

I’m Karen Judd Smith, and for the last 20 years, I’ve been helping people and teams get their voices heard and making a difference from main street to the highest levels.

While my name isn’t too famous, I’ve been the behind-the-scenes secret weapon for change-makers, leaders and activists.

Most of us know that our best comes out when we have someone in our corner, watching out for us, supporting when needed, and guiding, teaching and holding us accountable.

Honing effective people skills is a life-long endeavor. This course will help you improve your skills, often with eyebrow raising surprise at how effective our unique approach and tools can be.

This’s Where the Ultimate Negotiators MasterClass Comes In…

Now distilled the essentials of my high-end coaching resources into the Ultimate Negotiators MasterClass so you can benefit from what I have learned, discovered, taught and practiced.

Ultimate Negotiators MasterClass

Covers Six Major Pillars of Success:

Mindset, Essential Skills, Sequencing, Strategies, Preparation and Practice.

Z

Module 1: Mindset

First, we’ll get you clarity on what negotiation really is, what are we actually dealing with (mostly it’s not what you think!) and bringing to the forefront, the most productive and helpful approach to crucial conversations and difficult, high-stakes situations.

With clarity that comes from understanding the big piture of the change process that negotiations are, you are poised to set out on a journey of discovery and accomplishment. 

Module 2: Essential Skills

The 10 core negotiation skills are broken down into the Foundational 5 and the Final 5. 

These skills, when honed through practice and experience, are the keys to unlocking human potential in a way that turns even the most intransigent into surprising allies in the process of change. 

Let me guess, you do want someone you know to behave differently? How has that been working for you lately?

Module 3: Sequencing

Everyone knows that rives flow. But how many of us know the flow of negotiations? Are you able to anticipate that flow and remove the obstacles to progress so essential in high-stakes relationships and processes?

Understanding the flow of negotiations and what to do at each phase is a sign of mastery.

While even the best negotiators are constantly at work honing their skills, they are failiar with the negotiation journey and anticipate what is needed at each stage.

Module 4: Strategies

The people side of diplomacy is huge. Yes, having the specific knowledge about the content and process of decision-making is essential, as is fully understanding that diplomats are not machines with buttons to push.

If you are at the UN to help shape global policy, you are in this as a change leader. You are there to facilitate change at the global level. That means you need to be aware that there are many pressures that those tasked with decision-making are under. Sometimes the sheer force of timing, expertise, and global events will make what you are endeavoring to do a slam dunk. Mostly that will not be the case. You will be one who foresees more than most, and you will need to help “lead” the change process.

This module in conjunction with the next, provide you with essential components of change leadership.

Module 5: Preparation

Now we dig a little deeper into some of the dynamics that surround you in your new communities—the UNHQ diplomatic and NGO communities. While the issue of framing, building social capital and mobilizing your resources my not be foreign to you, this is where we delve a little deeper so you consciously factor in additional elements to your strategies.

This section builds your “impact and influence self-awareness” and ups the chances that you really can make the difference you have only up until now dreamt about.

Module 6: Practice, Practice, Practice

To accelerate your work, and to put many of those energetic volunteers to work, you will benefit from developing your team. And this is different work than getting yourself out there. So here we go over how to put your team to work, how to work with them to make the “one” effective team so you are not herding cats, and we look at some of the dysfunctions and obsessions that will help your team become your own organizations “WMD,” your own weapon of massive difference!
