Business coach, co-author of the book "Preparing for the" Management Duel "and difficult negotiations." 10 years of managerial experience, including general director of a construction company, commercial director of a branch of MegaFon. Leading the evening club management struggle.

“It’s hard to learn, easy in battle,” A.V. Suvorov. And “battles” with complex subordinates and in very difficult situations, each leader has to conduct regularly. And getting out of them as a winner is very difficult. Because to win, or at least not to lose in such negotiations, it is necessary immediately in three coordinates: 1) business interests, 2) relations with people, 3) power and authority of the leader. Therefore, simple solutions do not exist in them. For example, if you “just put pressure” on a subordinate, this will lead to his demotivation, if you make concessions to him, the authority of the leader may suffer, etc.

In this difficult training, students will encounter the most difficult types of managerial situations, and in a face-to-face encounter, they will put into practice strategies, techniques and behavioral technologies in such negotiations. After completing the course, in a real “battle” with real subordinates, you will be armed with effective scenarios, techniques and formulations, and you will take a serious step in developing your managerial skill, increasing your authority and level of motivation for your subordinates!

A feature of this super-intensive program is that participants have a unique opportunity to work out negotiation scenarios in sparring with other participants playing the role of a “complex subordinate”, then receiving feedback from them. The ratio of practice to theory 60/40.
