Chicago 
Negotiation Training

Having trained over 1,000,000 businesspeople around the world, Chicago included, we know what works. Unlike other training companies, we are fully focused on negotiation training rather than a variety of topics.

Effective Negotiating®

Successful people are successful negotiators. It's as simple as that. But what makes a successful negotiator?

The Chicago negotiating training course will teach you:

  1. Long-term relationships versus one shot deals.
  2. How to make a concession.
  3. How to set and achieve your targets.
  4. How expectations affect outcomes.
  5. How to use hidden leverage.
  6. And much, much more.

This seminar emphasizes how creating “Both-Win®” negotiating opportunities results in a better deal for both sides… as long as you know how to look for it.

The Effective Negotiating seminar is a dynamic classroom experience. You'll actively participate and learn through firsthand experience by engaging in negotiation dialogues, role-plays, and practice negotiating sessions. This intensive learning is facilitated by a negotiations expert in the Chicago area, and frequent opportunities are provided for peer-to-peer learning, networking, and discovery.

This Chicago negotiation seminar is for you if you:

  1. Manage relationships with suppliers/clients
  2. Manage and lead others
  3. Work in a matrix-style organization
  4. Work in Human Resources
  5. Want to improve your negotiating skills in business and life
