Who Should attend

This course is aimed at managing director level, who would like to gain further insight into getting better deals from clients.

What attendees will learn

This workshop introduces the concept of ‘trading' in negotiating the terms and conditions that apply to a project or contract for services.  It introduces a simple way to establish the impact on account or project profitability of agreeing to the conditions or terms often demanded by clients, when to accept them and when to walk away.

It also examines the balance of power and why it is that we, the agencies and consultancies, so often feel the weaker party in what should be a ‘partnership' of equals.

As with all these special MD Workshops, the session will be split 50:50 between presentation and discussion, with plenty of time for ‘Q and A'.
