Be More Persuasive

Perhaps one of the most valuable talents/skills that a negotiator should have is being persuasive. After all, if you can’t persuade other people to consider your side you won’t get very far.

Here are a few negotiation tips to increase your power of persuasion.

Focus on the other person’s positive attributes

Find an attribute you like about the other person and then compliment her/him on it. This tip comes from a Harvard Business blog:

Be sincere, genuine and likeable

This tip comes from Pat Price in Best Management Articles:

Ask questions rather than make statements

This tip comes from Calvin Sun in the Tech Republic:

Dr. Chester Karrass, in his book Give and Take, suggests the following:

  • Start with easy to settle issues rather than the more charged ones
  • Deliver good news before bad news
  • Emphasize where you are in agreement
  • Present both sides of the issue
  • Pay attention to your end argument, since it is the one the other person will remember the most
  • State your conclusions explicitly
  • Repeat your message to create acceptance

What persuades you?
