In every organization, differences can arise that impact employees and clients and interfere with your business goals.
Through our proprietary ACCORD Process for Strategic Negotiation we begin by separating people from the problem and addressing interests and values, while diagnosing difficult positions and the best alternatives through a collaborative and strategic procedure.
This powerful methodology helps organize your thinking and broaden your perspective as you analyze the underlying conflict. You achieve a deeper understanding of the key issues so you can engage in a constructive dialogue and formulate an effective game plan. Desired outcomes to negotiations are achieved through creative analysis of options that also prioritizes relationships, commitment, legitimacy and durability. With a path established toward a positive conclusion, you can return to your primary focus of building your business and creating the productive environment integral to your long-term success.
