Not just CEOs. The KARRASS Effective Negotiating^® seminars are designed to meet the learning needs of all businesspeople. Whether you’re just starting out, already a manager, or the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, these programs provide negotiation tactics and strategies that resonate at all levels of experience.

The tools provided can be applied immediately, and will make a profound and positive change in your preparation, approach, and outcome. Whether you negotiate person-to-person, business-to-business, or department-to-department, better skills mean better results.

Owners and Management

As the decision makers, you are often called upon to be either the primary negotiator or, at the very least, the person behind the scenes evaluating proposals, determining counter-offers, and deciding when to say, “You’ve got a deal.” The buck stops with you, the owners, the senior and mid-management. With that being said, sharpening your negotiating skills is a lifelong commitment.
