Description:
Negotiation is a business skill that all physicians need to possess. All physicians negotiate on many different levels every day. Improving your skill allows for greater effectiveness in your relationship to other business entities, colleagues, employees and patients. This tutorial will examine the negotiating process involved in a new practice opportunity. It begins with a look at the non-financial factors. These are the make or break, very negotiable factors that may not look so important when considering an employment opportunity, but in the long run are the deciding factors of happiness and professional satisfaction. With this tutorial, you will level the negotiating playing field.
