Education

Communication & Influence

Pre, primary secondary two-year four-year  technical or graduate level all educators (And those who work with and for them) have two critical functions: 1. To communicate. 2. To influence outcomes with and on behalf of their students.

But how do educators communicate effectively and influence all of the divergent elements involved with education in the difficult and challenging Emerging Integrated Global Economy (EIGE) of today?  How do they stretch limited resources?  How do they navigate the complex variations of individual capabilities and cultural issues like language and poverty? How do they impact voters who don’t want to pay higher taxes?  How do they support and encourage parents who must play a key role in the success of their students? How do they engage politicians who allocate resources and set policy? How do they balance relationships between private, public and charter institutions?

Clearly there is no single simple answer for any of these questions. But clearly the answers will not find themselves and the answers certainly won’t be created in a vacuum.  Rather solutions will  come through communication and influence among  all of the interested players and  through compromise. 

The solutions and the answers will have to be negotiated . And yet how many educators would list negotiation as one of the critical and most important skills for their profession. Surely many administrators and union representatives know they have to negotiate but how many are highly skilled negotiators? How many professors, teachers or principles and staff actually seek out or receive targeted education in the area of negotiation?  Not nearly enough. Not nearly enough by a long shot.

Too many educators perceive negotiation as primarily concerned with the buying and selling of goods and services (And that’s important because educational institutions buy a lot of good and services!) but buying and selling are barely the tip of the iceberg where negotiation is concerned. Especially where H-C’s Comprehensive Negotiating Strategies (CNS) is concerned.Negotiation impacts virtually every aspect of human interaction everyday (Check out this interview from CCN Sunrise with Derrick Chevalier. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBW61mwWmxw and read the recently published article Negotiation & Eating: An Unlikely Pairing published in Business Life Magazine: http://www.businesslife.com/articles.php?id=2799 .

Bottom line, if you want to be a truly effective educator Comprehensive Negotiating Strategies (CNS),  has to be part of your basic skill set because negotiation is what you are doing every day.  It’s not a matter of whether you are negotiating on a daily basis it’s a matter of whether you are negotiating well or being negotiated by those who do.And Harrison-Chevalier is the perfect partner for educators because all of our consulting services and educational programs are based on the only universal negotiation framework as applicable and effective for the pre or secondary school teacher as for the university professor and the successful sales professional and doctor.
