Some cultures may value punctuality more, while others may be more flexible. Different cultures may have different approaches to conflict.

Overview: There are misconceptions that Human Factors (HF) is a discipline which is only applicable to safety critical industries like aviation, medicine and the oil & gas sectors. In fact, there are tangible benefits to investing in HF beyond improving safety. Improved Operational Efficiency: Giving a team the tools to allow them to manage workload, problem solve and make effective decisions equips them with the ability to handle work-related difficulties without the need for higher level intervention. Regardless of the setting, front line team members are able to handle complex, dynamic situations. Enhanced Employee Engagement and Brand Reputation: Empowering team members to manage work situations increases employee engagement and improves customer interactions. An organisation that can demonstrate a commitment to improve and invest in its staff will reap the benefits of increased job satisfaction. Reduced Absenteeism, Increased Retention: Time off work due to stress and fatigue can be partly addressed through HF training. But workplace morale is undoubtedly going to affect individual stress levels. Investment in a combination of stress & fatigue management training and introducing peer support programmes demonstrates a commitment to employee well-being that Deloitte suggests will result in a 500% return in reduced absenteeism and improved retention. In summary, the same skills that help pilots, surgeons and oil rig drillers can be applied far more frequently to benefit an organisation beyond safety.

• Understand the basic principles of human cognition.
• Apply their understanding to the development of cognitive tools to enhance performance.

Program Overview As the target group is middle and senior management, they are certain to have experience in negotiation. Our aim is to develop more complex approaches that will allow us to become more effective negotiators. This course will build on the knowledge that participants already have to develop them further as stronger and more experienced negotiators. The win-win approach focuses on finding ways to help both sides feel successful, rather than just focusing on getting what we want. This methodology helps to form long-term relationships and partnerships – with clients, suppliers and within our own organization - and creates a positive basis for future negotiations. There is no point crushing the other party in a negotiation only to find that you need to work with this organization again.

We want to enable senior management to use their own strengths and personal experiences, further develop their natural skills, and to use a framework that really works. You will learn to approach every negotiation with a plan and the knowledge and confidence that you will be able to achieve your goals. The course is very interactive and engaging and you will learn negotiation from some of the best business schools in the world.
