what you want

Get more of what you want!

When most people think of the word 'negotiation,' they think of combative situations where they need to be on the offense so they don't get played. They operate from a place of scarcity, where if one party gets more, the other automatically gets less. There are clearly defined winners and losers even when they think they may be trying for a win-win scenario. At Venn Negotiation, we find that way of thinking outdated.

Venn Negotiation provides negotiation consulting and education. We are changing the nature of negotiation by getting you more of what you want for yourself and your business. In our Negotiation 101, VennMasters™, and VennMasters Corporate™ Programs, you learn the tools and techniques to negotiate for what you want, leveling the playing field in any relationship.
