What's wrong with young people?
Some older people complain they have a fear of going out at night because of increasing violence and the number of young people who are drunk. But is it right for them to be frightened?
It's true that the number of reported violent crimes has increased, but also true that the police have become more expert at recording crime. Their enquiries are more successful because victims seem more willing to report crime. This may account for the increase.
There is also a growing trend for young people to consume less alcohol now than ten or fifteen years ago. Why? It's probably a combination of factors. Alcohol is expensive, it makes you lose control, and there seems to be a cultural move away from heavy drinking of alcohol.

Negotiation and Change Management: Navigating the Corporate Seas

In the ever-evolving landscape of business, the ability to negotiate and manage change is akin to navigating treacherous seas. Successful captains of industry understand that these skills are not just necessary; they are the rudder that steers the corporate ship through both calm and stormy waters.

The Art of Negotiation

Negotiation is the subtle art of reaching an agreement that benefits all parties involved. It’s a dance of communication, where each step is carefully calculated to achieve a harmonious outcome. For managers, negotiation skills are indispensable. They are the tools that help forge strong stakeholder relationships, drive business objectives, and resolve conflicts that could otherwise fester into costly disputes.

Change Management: The Compass of Progress

Change management, on the other hand, is the compass that guides a company towards progress. It involves preparing, supporting, and helping individuals, teams, and organizations in making organizational change. Leaders who excel in change management not only anticipate the shifts in their industry but also create the strategies that will enable their teams to adapt swiftly and efficiently.

Combining Forces for Success

When negotiation and change management converge, they create a powerful synergy. Negotiation skills allow managers to involve key stakeholders in the change process, increasing buy-in and reducing resistance. Meanwhile, change management provides the framework for implementing the negotiated agreements, ensuring that the change is not just accepted but embraced.


As we sail into the future, the waters of business will only get more challenging. But with robust negotiation and change management skills, managers can not only weather the storms but also harness the winds of change to propel their organizations to new heights. It’s time to set sail and navigate the corporate seas with confidence and skill.
