The Philadelphia negotiating training course will teach you:

  3. Tools of the negotiating trade
  4. How preparation gets your head in the game
  5. How to break through an impasse
  6. Long-term relationships versus one-time negotiations
  7. How to identify if a deal is possible
  8. And much, much more.

Over the course of two action-packed days, you'll receive a crash course in negotiations that will equip you with the skills you need to recognize and respond to various negotiating tactics, develop a negotiating strategy, take a Both-Win® approach to your negotiations, and put these practical skills to work.

Because our sole focus is the art of negotiation, our Philadelphia seminars are always facilitated by world-class negotiations experts. You'll engage in peer role play, in-depth case studies and classroom-style discussion.

About Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Philadelphia is a bustling city with a GDP that puts it squarely in the top 10 cities in the world. Its economy is fueled by financial services – did you know the city has its own stock exchange? – as well as higher education, manufacturing, food processing, telecommunications, and heath care and biotechnology. With so many diverse and booming industries in the city, is it any surprising that negotiations courses are always in demand?

It's not all business, of course. There's never a shortage of great things to do in Philadelphia— but there are some things you just can't miss. Whether it's running like Rocky, visiting the Liberty Bell, refueling with a cheesesteak and then wandering along Boathouse Row or visiting an amazing museum on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, these are the experiences that make the 'City of Brotherly Love' stand out among the rest.
