FREDERICK, Md., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Training

Services On

Demand, Inc. (TSOD: http://www.tsod.com) recently provided

negotiation skills

training for Ph.D.-level professionals in the Scientific Review

Program at

the National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Institute of

Allergy and

Infectious Diseases (NIAID) in Bethesda, land, according to

Marcia

, customer service director for TSOD.

" These impressive and dedicated government professionals engage

in

complex negotiations ranging from hotel arrangements for scientific

review

committees to post-review applicant protests, " said Whyte,

chief

instructor for Training Services On Demand, who facilitated the

training.

" It was a unique challenge and a distinct privilege to work with

these

sophisticated scientists who are called upon to be experts on

everything

from federal policy to medical and biological standards in their

effort to

ensure that taxpayer dollars are invested in the most effectual

research. "

TSOD Negotiation Skills Workshops (http://www.tsod.com/win)

create

team-specific strategies for negotiation planning, creative

thinking, self

awareness, assertiveness, questioning techniques, and negotiation

closing.

The one- and two-day interactive onsite workshops are appropriate for

professionals in leadership, sales, and professional/technical

positions.

" Perhaps most importantly, we help teams understand how others

approach

negotiation -- the styles, techniques, and tactics in use in today's

negotiating universe, " Whyte said. " With a firm sense of legitimate

negotiation approaches and an awareness of competitive gambits, teams

graduate from our Negotiation Skills programs prepared to do

business on a

square playing field. "
