The effectiveness of most things you do is largely determined by how well you negotiate.

The effectiveness of most things you do – whether it’s bargaining with customers over rates or structure, supporting credits through the approval process, dealing with staff performance, sorting out compliance issues with regulators, or managing everyday differences with colleagues, clients, friends, and significant others – is largely determined by how well you negotiate.


Mix in industry trends – commoditization and oversupply (translation: increasingly brutal competition); customers who feel more powerful, less loyal, and more inclined to negotiate than ever before; and a major emphasis on improved earnings – and the conclusion is inescapable: it’s time to improve your negotiation skills. Join us for a no-nonsense, how-to webinar that will jump-start your skills with key negotiating fundamentals. Begin a transformational improvement in the way you negotiate now!
