As we mentioned in our previous article about the most important languages for working in Europe, Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world and for that reason, more and more international companies are expecting their employees to have a strong command of this language.
At Glorick, as a business that’s specialised in online training for professionals, we offer an online business-Spanish course focused on content and activities that apply knowledge to real-life situations.
What are the phases of a negotiation?
As a professional you will surely have faced many situations in which you had to negotiate and reach an agreement. That’s why we think it’s important to mention in this article what the main phases are of carrying out a negotiation:
Preparation
The first phase of a negotiation that you need to know about is preparation. It’s considered one of the most important given that, in the business world, it can determine the success of the agreement. That’s why it’s important to set objectives and limits which cannot be broken.
Exchange of information
The second phase is called exchange of information given that it’s when both parties share their interests and needs in order to, later, carry out the negotiation.
Negotiation
After each party knows what their individual interests are, the time to negotiate begins. That’s why the third phase is the most important as it’s when you must make concessions and exchanges.
Closing
After getting through the negotiation phase, it’s important to reach an agreement. This agreement is what we refer to in the fourth phase, called closing. It’s considered vital that both parties' needs are met in this part in order to establish a better agreement.
Execution
The last phase is where everything that was previously agreed is executed and implemented.
How to prepare a negotiation in Spanish
Being able to negotiate in Spanish, or any other language that isn’t our mother tongue, requires a strong knowledge and command of the language given that in business environments a correct and formal language is often used.
Below, we would like to mention some of the most useful resources that you could apply to preparing a negotiation in Spanish and learning vocabulary which can be applied to your working life.
