Skills
Successfully shepherding a BD&L initiative demands a solid understanding of the science in question. But what will go an even longer way is an even deeper understanding and appreciation of the elements of effective communication. Communications styles, people skills and abilities that matter and produce results include:
- The art of negotiation – the ability to argue a position while understanding the stance of the other party.
- Team building – the ability to bring together various functional elements of an organization into a focused team effort.
- Persuasion – the ability to build and make a case for a deal in a way that speaks to the needs of the other party.
- Education – the ability to teach science-oriented SME staff the elements of effective negotiation.
- Empathy – the ability to put oneself in another’s shoes, critical to building the rapport needed for serious negotiations.
