- Poorly handled negotiations can add up to detrimental costs for an organization. By studying 25,000 negotiations, Copenhagen Business School has found that one-third of negotiations fail to reach a decision at all.
- As the source of learning and development for the organization, HR is relied upon to address negotiation training for employees involved in negotiations, including managers.
- Negotiation training can be expensive to administer, time consuming to create, and difficult to put together in a comprehensive manner that will impact participants in the training session.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
- Negotiation occurs every day, yet most people don’t know how to develop a negotiation strategy.

- Relationships, topics, and negotiation styles are the overarching themes for every negotiation you enter.
Impact and Result
- Cost savings from the delivery of McLean & Company’s comprehensive and impactful training deck.
- With training, managers will contribute to the organizational bottom line as a result of successful negotiations, and will improve their own productivity and work environment because of more confidence in their ability to bargain.
