Think

When most negotiations training courses focus on scenarios and "if this happens, then you do that" kind of advice, our course goes beyond those. We go back to the very starting point of thinking and reacting even before you sit down at the negotiations table.

Learn the "skill" of Self-worth

Self-worth is a skill. And like all skills it can be learnt. Learning takes place if there is an open mind and understanding. Whether it is a foreign language you want to learn or math, you need the ability to comprehend concepts and the ability apply new knowledge. So with self-worth you need to learn what it is made of and practise it as you practise all skills.

Self-worth before confidence

Confidence comes and goes. It can go away as fast as you can build it - only to return again a little later after you work on it some more. However, self-worth comes to stay. You need four distinct elements to build the skill of self-worth: reality, perspective, perception, and reaction.
This is what makes this course so special.

This course can be superbly combined with the course: 

Speak Up & Stand Your Ground
: Confidence in Public Speaking & Communication.

Contents of Personality Hack: Self-Worth before Confidence

What you will learn

Human psychology under pressure

How men react in a crisis
By now we all know that men and women react differently when under pressure and make rather different decisions when it comes to handling a crisis.
  • Sticking with familiar solutions to problems
  • Distorting the truth
  • The Brain Attic
  • Improving your ideas

Language & Communication

An intro to forensic linguistics
Memory is a great tool in negotiations and so is persuasive language. But are men good at these two and how are women different on this front? Do people have a "linguistic tell" that helps us negotiate easier?
  • Understanding the linguistic footprint
  • Distinguishing one individual's speech from another
  • How good is our memory for language?
  • Persuasive communication and how to develop it

Status anxiety & wit

Quick and flexible thinking
Is it data that you need to know before you come to the negotiations table? Is it the other parties' personalities? Why focus on that only and not your self-conception and how fast you can think in a crisis? How do you control your self-conception so it does not affect you?
  • Status anxiety and how it affects negotiation performance
  • Equality, expectation and envy
  • Investing pride and sense of worth in negotiations 
  • Man as an interpretation machine

Negotiating with a liar

When men and women lie
Social psychology tells us the people lie often. Negotiators are people - they lie, too. More than half do so when the opportunity arises. Apart from developing tactics to recognise a lie, the best way is to make it hard for them to find an opportunity.
  • Deception in Negotiation: are there strategies to handle it?
  • Detecting or preventing lies?
  • Dishonesty and the temptation of deception
  • Paltering and other forms of deception

Pamela has a unique approach to negotiations. When she negotiates, you can hardly tell she is doing so and that is her competitive advantage. Under her guidance, I managed to raise my turnover by 30% when dealing merch on tours - among other great outcomes.

I had the pleasure to meet Pamela in the UN Emerging Leaders Experience which took place in Turin, Italy, from March 12-15, 2019. As a coach, Pamela has a unique ability to look and analyze the human behavior from a unique perspective.
Her brilliant style sets her apart from conventional models of coaching. Pamela provides valuable insights, guidance and practical tools to develop leadership potentials in both personal and professional contexts.

Thank you, Pamela!

We met through our corporate contract and from the first sessions we had, I realized that in certain cases I was able to see people and conditions around me, but only behind a blurred glass.
You were there, the one who helped me clear the glass, understand and accept how others see myself, no matter what I know about myself and skills. Understanding others is a basic step towards better communication, but understanding ourselves comes as a prerequisite to that.
This is the right time to express not only my warmest thanks, but also the fact that I really admire you. Don’t wonder why…
You are one among the few people I met so far, who has the talent to build a feeling of trust out of nothing, in a relationship that did not exist the day before. Trust is a magic feeling which makes things easier, more effective processes, more optimal results to our efforts. Imagine the world without trust: no family bonds, no real friendships, no strong relationships, no corporate morality, no ethnic sense.

Pamela you have the ability to build feelings of trust, and this acts as a canvas on which the coachee starts to paint with the colors he has in his palette: emotional intelligence, sensitivity, perception ability, life experiences, feelings of love and understanding for others, etc.

Today I honestly feel richer because I had the luck to work with you on my personal development.

Thank you.

Personality Hack: Self-Worth before Confidence

Frequently asked questions for the course:
Personality Hack: Self-Worth before Confidence

FAQ 1 DOES THE COURSE OFFER PRACTICAL ADVICE I CAN APPLY TO MY WORK, RELATIONSHIPS, AND PERSONAL LIFE?

Negotiation Skills is a course that may offer practical tips on how to deal with certain situations that require good negotiation skills. However, we do not offer scenarios. Instead, we train you in skills that will help you assess the situation more accurately and apply the theory in the best way. Let's not forget: practice makes perfect.

FAQ 2 IS THIS COURSE ONLY FOR MEN?

No, anyone can purchase this course regardless of their sexual orientation, gender or identity. This course can help anyone understand how guys usually negotiate, so it could be an added benefit to attend both courses relevant to guys and gals. It will be much easier to read them and read the room in a more beneficial way.

FAQ 3 DO YOU HAVE ANY PARTICULAR NEGOTIATION FRAMEWORK?

Although it would have been very easy for us to come up with a framework and join many other progammes that do so, we are keen believers in the human wit and its speed to make the right decision under pressure. This is what we mostly focus on: your ability to read people and the room, as accurately as possible and respond appropriately and negotiate when in a crisis.

FAQ 4 HOW MUCH TIME WILL I NEED TO COMMIT TO THE COURSE?

The four units of this course total approximately 3 hours in length. You'll want to spread these out according to your schedule - but if you commit a short amount of time in your mornings or evenings, you should be able to complete everything each Unit offers within a week. While studying for the course, you're encouraged to revisit your lessons and engage in discussions with the community. An estimated 3-5 hours per weeks for the entire commitment should be sufficient (video tutorials, e-books, external resources, assignments, engaging with the community).

FAQ 5 HOW DO I BECOME A VIP MEMBER? WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

You can become a VIP member if you purchase three courses (including while having a discount or are part of a bundle) AND are an active member of the community. Check the FAQs on the home page for more details on this because you even get to apply for free 1-0-1 coaching with Pamela!

FAQ 6 DO I NEED ANY PRIOR ACADEMIC KNOWLEDGE BEFORE STUDYING THE COURSE?

The Negotiation Skills course is accessible to anyone regardless of qualifications and academic background. What would be an added value is the opportunity to be in an environment to apply what you learn in practice.

FAQ 7 HOW IS THE COURSE DIFFERENT FROM PAMELA'S FREE YOUTUBE VIDEOS?

Pamela's YouTube videos offer fragments of teachings and tips. They may give you some of the learnings related to negotiation skills, but they're not a complete and structured experience. This course gives you the tools, resources, and community you need to absorb and apply your learnings in the fastest, most efficient way.

FAQ 8 IS THERE A TIME LIMIT TO HOW LONG I CAN STUDY AND RE-STUDY THE COURSE?

CoachGo offers you lifetime access. However, you may want to revisit the materials often as we may refresh the materials and you may find yourself in situations where your negotiation skills might need a boost.
