The Art of Feminine Negotiation with Cindy Watson

<p dir="ltr">What do you feel when you hear the word, negotiation? Are you scared, worried, or intimidated? Do you then avoid it when it comes your way?</p> <p dir="ltr">We are actually negotiating all the time, whether it is in professional or our personal lives. However, oftentimes, negotiation is feared because of its competitive nature– when in reality, it is far opposite from that. Viewing negotiation correctly isn’t all about being competitive or “masculine,” but rather encapsulating the “feminine” skills society seems to shun. We often tell ourselves to practice these masculine skills, but now, it’s time to flip the script and practice the art of feminine negotiation.</p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cindy Watson</strong> is the founder of Women On Purpose and the creator of the Art of Feminine Negotiation and HERsuasion programs.
