Like leadership, negotiation is a learned skill. But most of us haven't been taught how to negotiate properly, much less deal with the anxiety surrounding the experience.

Activist Hannah Rosenthal is no stranger to negotiation. As the executive director of the Chicago Foundation for Women, she heads an advocacy and grant-making group focused on human rights issues impacting women and girls.

Rosenthal offered advice about negotiating one's life from a personal, professional and political point of view at the Wisconsin Women in Higher Education Leadership conference held at Marian College WI in October 2005.
