People need better leaders to guide them, but they also have a desire to become better leaders themselves in many aspects of life, such as businesses, non-profits, sports teams, and more.

Many corporate professionals and other practitioners in various disciplines pursue the goal of being solid leaders.

But despite training and mentoring, these aspiring leaders still fall short of becoming the kind of leader who inspires others to deliver to the best of their abilities.

We all have leadership traits, but proactive efforts are needed in order to grow and transform these skills.

The appropriate level of planning, nurturing, and execution can help leaders navigate the course from a non-starter to a resilient starter and finisher.

Negotiation For Women

This presentation is based on Dr. Yasmin Davidds  bestselling book Your Own Terms: A Woman’s Guide to Taking Charge of Any Negotiation. 

When women negotiate, to what degree should they disclose what they hope to receive from the negotiation, and how should they go about revealing their desires?

The answer to a great extent depends on the type of person they are negotiating with and how they wish the other to perceive them.

In order for women to position themselves properly in any negotiation, they must learn to identify and adapt to their counterpart’s negotiation style.

Learn to:

• Identify their own negotiation style
• Identify other peoples’ negotiation styles
• Position themselves for a win-win outcome

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.
