# Planning and Preparation for a Negotiation

Negotiation is risky, competitive, and some tactics can feel deceptive or nasty. It is not a skill we are born with, but more one we must learn and develop to be effective. 80% of organizations have no formal negotiation strategy, and yet we negotiate every day – whether internally with stakeholders, externally with customers or candidates, and personally. It’s time to make learning about negotiation a priority. Learn from Tony Perzow, a veteran negotiation expert, about all things negotiation.
