New Acquisition

You are the Vice President of a private investment firm.
Recently you acquired a software company for $5 Million and were able to turnaround within one year. Now you want to acquire another software company. You meet the owner and he too is interested to sell.
During next couple of weeks, you make him a offer, however the seller says it is too low. His asking price is $15 Million, which in your opinion is too high.
How do you plan to make a deal?

In addition to hard and soft skills, we must also exhibit self-management skills e.g. self-motivation, time management and stress management. Being open minded, flexible, adaptable, experimenting and learning from mistakes are the key differentiator for a person's success.

These are · - Complex Problem Solving · - Critical Thinking · - Creativity · - People Management · - Coordinating with Others · - Emotional Intelligence · - Judgment and Decision Making · - Service Orientation · - Negotiation · - Cognitive Flexibility

As a prospective employee, it is our job to learn and enhance the soft skills continuously as well as demonstrate relevant skills in our resume and during the interview to increase our success rate in the interview process.
