IN MY OPINION

    Our contributor for this month's RAKAN Sarawak is Mdm. Teo Gien Kheng of the Agriculture Research Centre, Semengok, near Kuching. Mdm. Teo feels that interpersonal relationship between two people can thrive if both parties are prepared to negotiate their way through. Read on.

 The Art of Negotiation
by Teo Gien Kheng

Negotiation is an art and a skill
Done over a chat or perhaps a meal
By everyone and every age
Everyday and everywhere
Success depends on personal flair
Effective communication is the key
Knowing what makes the other party tick
 
 

You may need to use your charm and wit
Some may resort to dirty tricks
Others think is sex appeal
The end result is just a deal
Based on trust and each other's will
Up to each party to fulfil
