Leadership Literacy

Reading People, Comprehending Situations And Acting Upon Your Knowledge
​
Edward Hatch
​

Successful practice requires the ability to read people and situations, understand what you are reading, and act upon the information you have gathered. Whether you are leading clients, co-workers, or constituents; persuading judges, juries or hearing panels; influencing co-counsel, arbitrators or mediators; or negotiating contracts, fees, or settlements; the human dynamics are the same. The importance of this learnable skill can’t be over-stated, yet it is an arena in which few receive formal training.
You will learn:

  • The three negotiating axioms that affect the outcome of every negotiation and the real-world application of each;

  • The three predictable forms of resistance and how to overcome each;

  • Appropriate responses to each “critical choice point” of the “Cognitive Mind Map” leading to YES;

  • Probing for and discovering your counterparts’ underlying interests and motivations;

  • “Pre-framing” questions to redirect conflict to cooperation;

  • The four basic personalities and how to structure your presentation to accommodate each;

  • A research-based and experience-proven strategy for creating and maintaining your trust with your clients and/or opposition; and

  • A five-step strategy for handling and overcoming last-minute objections.
