Project manager as negotiator

Negotiation is a dialogue intended to resolve disputes, to produce an agreement upon courses of action, to bargain for individual or collective advantage, or to craft outcomes to satisfy various interests. It is the primary method of alternative dispute resolution.

Negotiation occurs in business, non-profit organizations, government branches, legal proceedings, among nations and in personal situations such as marriage, divorce, parenting, and everyday life. The study of the subject is called negotiation theory. Professional negotiators are often specialized, such as union negotiators, leverage buyout negotiators, peace negotiators, hostage negotiators, or may work under other titles, such as diplomats, legislators or brokers.

Negotiation is something that we do all the time and is not only used for business purposes. For example, we use it in our social lives perhaps for deciding a time to meet, or where to go on a rainy day.

Negotiation is usually considered as a compromise to settle an argument or issue to benefit ourselves as much as possible.

Communication is always the link that will be used to negotiate the issue/argument whether it is face-to-face, on the telephone or in writing. Remember, negotiation is not always between two people: it can involve several members from two parties.

There are many reasons why you may want to negotiate and there are several ways to approach it. The following is a few things that you may want to consider.

Why Negotiate?
If your reason for negotiation is seen as ‘beating’ the opposition, it is known as ‘Distributive negotiation’. This way, you must be prepared to use persuasive tactics and you may not end up with maximum benefit. This is because your agreement is not being directed to a certain compromise and both parties are looking for a different outcome.



Should you feel your negotiation is much more ‘friendly’ with both parties aiming to reach agreement, it is known as ‘Integrative negotiation’. This way usually brings an outcome where you will both benefit highly.

Negotiation, in a business context, can be used for selling, purchasing, staff (e.g. contracts), borrowing (e.g. loans) and transactions, along with anything else that you feel are applicable for your business.

Task 2(29/01/2010)

TASK 2 ADDIE (IMPLEMENTATION) - 29.1.2010

The Implementation phase

Implementation is the fourth phase from the ADDIE model.

This is the phase where the developed course is actually administered to the target audience. The delivery environment should be prepared for implementation of the course. The following considerations are also taken into account during this phase.



Planning for implementation is important. After all the analysis, design and development the team has done so far it would be terrible if the instruction or project fails due to poor implementation.


During the implementation phase, a procedure for training the facilitators and the learners is developed. The facilitators' training should cover the course curriculum, learning outcomes, method of delivery, and testing procedures. Preparation of the learners includes training them on new tools (software or hardware) and student registration.

This is also the phase where the project manager ensures that the books, hands-on equipment, tools, CD-ROMs and software are in place, and that the learning application or website is functional.



Here are just a few of the implementation issues that the delivery team will need to decide.

-Establish the timetable for the course rollout

-Schedule the courses, enroll learners, and reserve on-site and off-site classrooms

-Notify learners and their supervisors about the course

-Select trainers and prepare them with a custom train-the-trainer

-Arrange for the printer to deliver course workbooks to the class site

-Ensure all sites will have internet-ready computers and arrange for laptops to be shipped when necessary

-Manage travel and expenses for the trainers and/or learners

WORKFOLW SCHEDULER

A workfolw consists of a sequence of connecte steps :

  • depition of a sequence of operations
  • declared as work of a person
  • a group of persons
  • an organization of staff or one or more simple or complex mechanisms


Workfolw :

  • may be seen as any abstraction of real work
  • segregated in work share
  • work split or other types of ordering
  • enabled by a systematic organization of resources
  • defined roles and mass, energy and information flows, into a work process that can be documented and learned
  • designed to achieve processing intents of some sort, such as physical transformation, service provision or information processing.
For control purposes, workflow may be a view on real work under a chosen aspect, thus serving as a virtual representation af actual work. The flow being described often refers to a document that is being transferred from one stepp to another.
  • e.g : for describing a reliably repeatable sequence of operations



  Example of good workflow scheduling -Keep cash register jingling Whether you have a huge shop or a small one, proper workflow strategies and scheduling can make a large impact on your shop's bottom line and your customers satisfaction level. With that said, the following will be of greatest benefit to small shops blossoming into medium-sized operations that are just beginning to require workflow controls. Workflow management is the controls you place on the process of repairing vehicles in your shop. Scheduling is the process of making drop-off and pickup appointments for those vehicles with your customers. These two activities probably make up the bulk of the shop manager or production supervisor workload at your facility and are closely interwined.

Team building usually focused on process that builds and develops shared goals, interdependence, trust and commitment, and accountability among team members and that seeks to improve team member problem-solving skill.

From MUHAMMAD ZULHELMI BIN MASEOT (AI090148) AND MOHD BASHA BIN MOHD YUSUF (AI090128)


Sales Person:

The primary function of professional sales is to generate and close leads, educate prospects, fill needs and satisfy wants of consumers appropriately, and therefore turn prospective customers into actual ones. The successful questioning to understand a customer's goal and requirements relevant to the product, the further creation of a valuable solution by communicating the necessary information that encourages a buyer to achieve their goal at an economic cost is the responsibility of the salesperson or the sales engine (e.g. internet, vending machine, etc). A good salesman should never mis-sell or over-evaluate the customer's requirements.

Sales Manager:
It is the goal of a qualified and talented sales manager to implement various sales strategies and management techniques in order to facilitate improved profits and increased sales volume. They are also responsible for coordinating the sales and marketing department as well as oversight concerning the fair and honest execution of the sales process by his agents.

Sales Manager Requirement:


Here are 10 attributes of a great sales manager:

1) Passion. This is also one of the top qualities of a master closer and the only one that can’t be taught. Without a passion for the home building industry, it’s impossible to lead and inspire a team, Tarullo says.

2) Integrity. Combined with passion, these are the two most important qualities for a sales manager. “They need that core,” Tarullo says. “If they don’t have those, they shouldn’t be in sales management.”

3) Positive attitude. It’s up to a builder’s leadership to put smiles on the faces of the sales team and set the tone for the company.

4) Coaching. Seventy percent of a sales manager’s time should be spent coaching, either in groups or one on one, Tarullo says. Any sales manager who says the workload doesn’t allow that kind of time with the staff needs to examine how the day is being spent and ditch or delegate any activity that doesn’t affect lead generation or conversion.


5) Leadership by example. “The sales manager should be out on the sales floor with his people,” says Jim Capaldi, director of sales for the Ventura division of Standard Pacific Homes and author of The Ultimate New Home Sales Success Manual. “That’s where you’re most productive. Lead by example, make them accountable, push them, and get them out of their comfort zone.”


6) Loyalty. Sales managers need to go to bat for their sales team members, says Debbie Dompke, sales manager for ­Chicago-based Lexington Homes. “Let them know you’re on their side,” she says. “When they know you’re sincere, it’s amazing the work ethic you’ll get in return.”


7) Availability. Dallas-based sales trainer Bob Hafer says paperwork has to be done, but it can’t be used as an excuse “to not do the tough stuff.” It’s easier than dealing with people, to be sure, he says, adding, “Administrative tasks never talk back to you.” When he was a sales manager, he got to work at 7 a.m. and spent two hours on paperwork before the phone started ringing. Then, when the sales centers opened, he was available to work with his sales teams in the field.


8) Motivation. This includes encouragement and recognition. Dompke says she does this in “so many ways—contests, games, dancing, singing, dressing up. You laugh together and play together.”


9) Continuous learning. Doctors, accountants, attorneys, and other professionals keep learning their whole lives in order to keep their skills up to date. Sales managers need to do likewise. “When you don’t grow,” Capaldi says, “you leave the door open for someone else.”


10) Listening and communication. This is an underpinning for most of the other qualities. You can’t be a good coach or motivator if you’re not a good communicator; and you can’t continuously learn, lead by example, or demonstrate loyalty without being a good listener.
