What makes this course different?
Why do smart, talented people struggle to negotiate?
Most people can learn about rational negotiation strategies by reading a book like Getting to Yes, or Never Split the Difference.But they still struggle to put it into practice.That's why this course covers negotiation theory, and helps you tackle the 'irrational' factors that get in the way of executing the rational strategy:π Practice: Realistic briefs, with room for feedback & experimentation
π Personalisation: Use self-diagnostics to map your natural style
π Process: Learn a process to manage end-to-end negotiations
Meet your instructor, Lucy Wark
Lucy studied business & social sciences at Cambridge & the University of Chicago, where she was introduced to negotiation theory: the perfect intersection of her favourite topics!She began her career serving corporate & government clients at McKinsey & Company, before launching the pioneering Australian sexual wellness brand NORMAL, and negotiating a successful exit from its venture-backed parent company, Eucalyptus, in 2022.A word from Lucy:"Learning to negotiate was a huge unlock for me - especially working in male-dominated fields, where the βgender negotiation gapβ can compound existing inequalities.I was once described as negotiating "like a Russian accountant" by the (Russian accountant) who just hired me, which I wear as a badge of honour. But seriously - I'm really glad I learned to advocate for myself, and my company.Think of Negotiation I (this course) as the perfect introduction to negotiating for yourself as an individual contributor - thereβs no knowledge assumed, but youβll come out feeling confident to negotiate job offers, raises, promotions & other conditions.Our other course, Negotiation II, is designed for people negotiating for their organisations - whether itβs a fundraise, a big partnership, an important contract, a key hire or a company sale, itβs about mastering this essential skill before the stakes are really high.β
