Negotiation: Rehearse and Visualise
Visualization is the theater of your mind.
It is a powerful tool, but it needs to be backed up with practice, where you physically move and say things, preferably with someone else playing the role of your problem person, or in front of a mirror if this feels more comfortable at first.
Don’t be shy or embarrassed doing a role-play, think of it as a bit of fun, which can teach you a valuable lesson about success and failure in critical situations.
Body language or non-verbal communication is very important in determining whether a person’s communication style is sensitive, aggressive, passive or manipulative.
To communicate effectively, you need to ensure that your body language agrees with your words, rather than contradicting them.
