In-Class Expert-Led, 3-Hour Training Agenda

More and more companies are realizing that having a solid procurement strategy is key to managing supplier relationships—and to boosting profits. Having good negotiation skills is key to getting the best results and meeting management expectations.

As the saying goes, "If you fail to prepare, you're preparing to fail." This is especially true when it comes to negotiation. It's always a good idea to get an early start on your preparation because there's a lot to cover! There are so many things to think about, like goals, strategy, tactics, team, facts and figures… remember this proverb: "The early bird catches the worm."

In this training, you'll learn about the different steps of structured preparation, how to set smart goals and choosing the right strategy. Furthermore, you'll understand the importance of a clearly defined "License to negotiate". After completing this training, you'll see that preparation for negotiation is not a question of time but a question of priority.
