This workshop will give you skills to apply directly to improve outcomes of all types of negotiations. Whether you are negotiating a founders’ agreement, an investor term sheet, corporate partnership, or a new hire, you will come away with useful techniques and insights. Negotiation is part of everyday life, though most people have not had access to the knowledge and training in this important skill. In this workshop, you will learn the basics of successful negotiation and have the opportunity to practice using an engaging case study. Join us for an informative and interactive workshop with David Johnson.
