World Class Negotiations Management Seminar:
Best Practices, Tools, and Future Directions

Presented By: Robert A. Rudzki, President of Greybeard Advisors, LLC

Just as strategic sourcing introduced a new level of sophistication and
effectiveness into procurement practices, there are new strategies, processes
and tools to elevate negotiations management.  Leveraging his experience leading
supply management organizations and introducing world-class best practices, the
presenter will describe:

 
  • The difference between traditional negotiations and world-class modern
    negotiations management
  • Critical elements in world-class negotiations management that every supply
    manager needs to know and apply
  • Tools and processes to guide strategy development and execution
  • How to determine the appropriate role for senior executives, and how to get
    them to play that role – and only that role
  • Examples of applying these concepts, tools and processes at world-class
    companies
  • Pitfalls to avoid, illustrated with painfully-funny, videotaped vignettes
