SUMMARY:Greed\, Envy and Consensus Building
DESCRIPTION:With stories about prehistoric characters Lucy\, Ethel\, Larry\, Curly and Moe\, Margaret will explain why\, in hunter-gatherer days\, humans selected for greed and envy in order to survive. Nowadays\, these traits sometimes defeat our own interests\, especially when seeking consensus. But we can modify that hard wiring. And we don’t have to choose between compromising our own interests versus taking advantage of other people. We can actually get more of what we want by addressing others’ interests along with our own.  \n\nSPEAKER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nMargaret E. Anderson\, Trainer\, Author and Consultant\, helps people get what they need from others\, while building bridges\, not burning them. She brings to the table decades of actual use of the interactional skills she teaches\, as well as many years of training groups and individuals in consensus building and related communication skills.  \nA Harvard-trained negotiator\, Margaret designed and taught her own curricula for Rice University’s Glasscock School of Continuing Studies from 2002 to 2014. She has also lectured for the University of Houston and for Texas State University. Prior to launching her training and consulting business\, she gained experience in international and domestic business and was instrumental in resolving a number of serious disputes. Her clients include both for-profit and non-profit organizations\, professional groups\, and individual leaders and professionals. \nMargaret is author of the books Bridges to Consensus and Love on the Rocks with a Twist–Delightful Fiction with Lessons on Dealing with Others. Her blog is devoted to consensus building\, persuasion\, and related communication skills. \nPersuasionCoach.com  \n\n\n\n\n
