Prerequisites

Participants are willing to keep an open mind to gaining new skills as well as insights about themselves

More talks on:

Are you frustrated by conversations that go nowhere in spite of your best efforts to grow your career? Do you find meetings on professional development die a death without positive outcomes? Do you wish you could get more of your own way for the greater good?   

We believe that leadership begins with ourselves. And that most conversations involve some form of negotiation, from negotiating for organizational change to a pay rise and where to go for lunch.   

Join A.C.E. Negotiators (short for Agile, Chilled, and Empathetic) Portia Tung and Tom Roden, a pair of Agile coaches and leaders with more than 40 years of collective experience in Agile, for a chance to grow your negotiation skills and put them to the test in a safe, friendly and playful environment designed to help you be at your best. This fun and interactive workshop is based on the negotiation techniques used by FBI Agent Chris Voss, who has used it successfully from hostage negotiations to MBA classrooms and even at home.
