Segment 1: 60 minutes		Leverage Through Empathic Investigation Our typical negotiation styles consider our needs, but often overlook the needs of the other side. This section includes a detailed process for creating a substantial needs and interests map as a means toward developing and proposing solutions which are beneficial to us, and acceptable to them.

Segment 2: 60 minutes		Communicating Toward Cooperation Meeting our objectives becomes exponentially more feasible when we effectively communicate to others that we have considered their perspective. We can accomplish this by communicating through a framework of genuine curiosity. The result is reciprocity and a more willing partner.
