TRAINING
Professional Development Training
We passionately believe that networking is your gateway to opportunities, conflict resolution is your vehicle to solutions, and negotiations are your means to unveiling value.
With above in mind, we offer professional development training focused on two main areas:
-
Conflict resolution: Lead by Scott Tillema, a former SWAT hostage negotiator & Melissa Fortunato, a retired FBI agent and hostage negotiator, our conflict resolution courses can be completed as a half day or full day program. Attendees will be learning and engaging in exercises allowing them to clarify how they approach conflict, and build the skills needed to find success when dealing with high stress, intense situations.
-
Negotiation: Our faculty who instruct the full curriculum include Joanna Shea, Leighton Wilks, Ines Piccinino & Gary Luefschuetz. Our team's commercial negotiation expertise is based on decades of experiences negotiating in the global energy, construction, infrastructure, and consulting industries, along with government negotiations. We round off our commercial negotiation experience with published academic research in the negotiation and organizational behavior fields.
Corporate training can be delivered in person, or over zoom and our training sessions can be as short as one half-day session, growing to our full three day program.
