[QUOTE="Amma Usman, post: 185144, member: 36740"] Hey [USER=35984]@futuretcholder[/USER] . First of all, congratulations on securing the AC. You have done very well to get to that step. With negotiation exercices, I would say the first tip is being mindful of how one comes across. It’s a [I]negotiation -[/I]you‘re trying to meet a middle ground, so ensuring that the discussion is fruitful and not argumentative is a key skill. This is quite difficult to master, but with the right tone, approach, and demeanor, you’ll do great on this area. The next is acknowledging both sides of the argument. A lawyer needs to understand their client, but also the client on the other side. This makes you appear as a well-rounded candidate. Briefly throw in a few pointers which show that you acknowledge and understand the other side too. Structure, structure, structure! I can’t emphasize the importance of this enough. You need a clear structure to appear as a candidate with well-organized thoughts. This does so many things. For example, it shows the interviewer that the set preparation time for delving into the facts was more than enough for you to come back in with a reasoned position. Above all - confidence. The more confident you are in your position as a negotiator, the more confident your answers will come across. This aspect of an AC tests things beyond your commercial acumen - it tests those soft skills that are often unspoken about. Hope this helps, and let us know if you have any more questions :) [/QUOTE]
