Advanced Negotiation Strategy to Protect Profit and Close Stronger Deals

Event description

From vendor and client agreements to pricing and hiring employees, negotiations are a constant part of running a business. The terms you agree to directly affect the profit you keep, the risk you assume, your business relationships, and your cash flow. Without a repeatable negotiation process, agreements are made reactively, putting your profits at risk.

In this advanced webinar, you’ll learn how to approach negotiations with both a rational structure and awareness of the human dynamics that influence outcomes. We will examine frameworks that help bring structure and clarity, along with the emotional and behavioral factors that often make and break a deal. We will also look at real business examples to show you how these principles apply in practical situations involving clients, vendors, partners, and other high-stakes conversations. By the end of this webinar, you will be able to:

• Understand and apply foundational frameworks such as BATNA, ZOPA, and Harvard’s 7 Elements
• Recognize why logic alone often fails and navigate emotional triggers and behavioral biases more effectively
• Use tactical empathy techniques drawn from the Black Swan approach to reduce tension and move conversations toward agreement
• Apply a practical negotiation preparation checklist to real-world scenarios involving clients, vendors, and partners
