NEGOTIATION IS SOMETHING WE ALL DO - LIKE IT OR NOT - ALL DAY.

Negotiation is getting to a mutually agreeable conclusion. Are you getting the outcomes that you want or are you feeling shafted, not listened to, or railroaded?

So let's ask the question again... when is the last time you negotiated?

• turning off the alarm clock
• getting the kids fed & off to school
• moving safely through traffic
• determining whether or not the teenager can go to the mall for lunch
• arranging with your spouse to pick up the kids at daycare
• hiring a babysitter
• setting a budget & guest list for the 10-year-old's birthday party
• budgeting for a housekeeper who actually keeps your house the way you prefer it
• talking with your worker about the benefits you're entitled to but don't seem to be receiving
• getting out of the office at a reasonable time so you can get home for dinner so your family remembers who you are...

These are all things that require negotiation to some degree.
