This artifact is a reflective essay I wrote for my negotiations class, analyzing my performance across multiple negotiation simulations and exercises. It captures my strengths, like active listening, preparation, and collaboration, as well as areas I identified for improvement, such as using distributive tactics and projecting assertiveness. Throughout the essay, I connect my experiences to future applications in the finance industry, where deal-making, client communication, and internal coordination are key. This assignment demonstrates my ability to think critically about my interpersonal skills, evaluate feedback, and create a structured plan for professional growth. It reflects not only how I negotiate, but also how I learn from real-world scenarios and adapt those lessons to long-term career goals.
