Course Description

This is one of the most comprehensive course on Negotiatons for PROCUREMENT, Purchasing and Supply Chain specialists.

Why? 

Because it is prepared from the practitioner, and here we talk only about the relevant information which you can apply in real life. Having 20+ years of Procurement negotiations experience, I know what works and what doesn't work in negotiations. And I will be happy to share with you!

We will not only look into the good examples, but also into the pitfalls, common mistakes, look into the tough and agressive negotiations... So that you will be also prepared for the different negotiation scenarios.

What are the biggest goas we want to achieve after this course:

- First of all, you will learn best negotiations practice.

- We will look at some preparation principles, bargaining tips and tricks from my experience.

- I will encourage you to practice the negotiations! We will try to train that negotiation muscle, so that Key skills and principles of effective negotiation will be anchored in your skin. They will become your habit.

- You would feel yourself more confident during your negotiations and you would achieve much better results than before.


Have a look into the preview lessons. If you like them - just go for the course. You will not regret it!

There are some valuable and good negotiating frameworks to takeaway and put into practice. Be prepared to review the transcript and go back as needed.

Having the charts and visuals as well as the examples really helps with understanding more on the topic. I liked the flow of the training, I feel it really helped me to understand more about negotiations and what to expect and how to prepare for them.
