In this story, an aeroplane named Seven is using a secret energy source. But the assistant engineer might know what it is. 
This is Part 3 of 5. 

It was 12:00pm and Seven was playing cards with Zack the pilot in their hangar.
 
Seven picked up a few cards and slammed five down on the table. “Once again, I’m winning, Zack. When will you ever learn? You can’t beat me—Hah!” 

Zack, looking frustrated, said, “Next time I’ll beat you. I’m going to practice online. You’ll see. Next time.” 

Tobee arrived for work and went straight to the office. He noticed the security camera system was blinking, alerting some kind of action needed. Tobee took care of it and turned to exit the office. 

But what was this? In front of him there were several huge barrels labelled ‘7-Up’. Tobee thought that it was illegal to use 7-Up. He understood it was a cheaper fuel source, but he believed it wasn’t worth the risk. Tobee believed in the government’s decision to ban 7-Up as a fuel source. 

Tobee stepped out into the main hangar and confronted Zack. 

“Boss? There are seven giant barrels of 7-Up in the office. Have you been giving it to Seven? You know that’s illegal, right? Why are you doing this? You’re risking your entire business.” 

Zack looked undeniably suspicious and worried. He struggled to speak confidently and said, “Oh that… that’s left over from my son’s 14th birthday party last week. Want some?” 

Tobee said, “Uh… okay. But… I’m a bit… hurt that you didn’t invite me…” 

Zack laughed nervously. “Yes… I only just invited family and friends… Sorry, Tobee. Maybe next time. Uhh, feel free to take some home if you want.” 

As Tobee left the main hangar, Seven whispered to Zack, “Phew, that was a close one. Thankfully he bought it.” 

Tobee didn’t believe Zack’s improvised story, but he tried to play along. He didn’t want Zack catching onto him. Tobee thought that he’d discover the truth for himself.

If you want to be good with conversational English and communication, learn how to do small talk.
Small talk is one way to warm up the conversation. It is important to ask simple questions first before asking deeper questions. Small talk is an artform that leads to bigger conversations.

A Viagem

Negotiation is a cornerstone of leadership. From securing contracts to resolving team conflicts, leaders must navigate agreements that benefit all parties. Here's how to excel at this vital skill:

1. Know Your BATNA: Before entering negotiations, determine your Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement (BATNA). This empowers you to walk away if an offer falls short of your needs. A strong BATNA strengthens your position and gives you room to make concessions.

2. Collaborative Spirit: Aim for win-win solutions. Leaders understand successful negotiation isn't about dominance, but building long-term relationships. Focus on common interests and identify areas where compromise can create mutual benefit.

3. Active Listening: Master the art of active listening. Pay close attention to the other party's needs and concerns. Ask clarifying questions to ensure you fully grasp their position. This fosters trust and allows you to tailor your approach.

4. Clear Communication: Articulate your goals and needs clearly, using strong communication skills.  Back up claims with data and evidence to support your arguments.  Be assertive, yet respectful, avoiding aggressive tactics that can damage relationships.

5. Leverage Body Language: Nonverbal cues speak volumes. Maintain confident eye contact, an upright posture, and avoid fidgeting. Projecting confidence strengthens your position and demonstrates your seriousness.

6. Be Flexible, Not Fixed: While you enter negotiations with clear goals, be prepared to adapt.  Unexpected issues may arise.  Maintain a flexible mindset, willing to consider alternative proposals that achieve your core objectives.

7. Patience is Key: Negotiations rarely happen overnight. Be patient, allowing time for discussion and counter-proposals. Don't rush the process to avoid settling for an unfavorable deal.

By mastering these strategies, leaders can transform negotiations from battles into opportunities for collaboration and mutual success.
