In this workshop, participants will explore what negotiation really is (and what it is not), how to prepare for and execute a successful negotiation, and how to preserve a relationship when the negotiation is not successful. You’ll have opportunities to discuss, problem solve, and practice negotiation approaches relevant to common labor management situations. You’ll also get support and feedback developing a written plan for a negotiation that you anticipate in the coming months. The workshop is part of the 2022 Farm Labor Dashboard Workshop Series, which focuses on helping farmers build practical labor management knowledge and skills. 

Presenters: Mary Peabody and Beth Holtzman, University of Vermont Extension.
