Negotiation consulting

We bring security, experience and strategic negotiation skills to the fore.

Do you need to conduct difficult negotiations? Are they important negotiations with a lot at stake? And would you like to come out of these negotiations with better results?

When it is really important, our experts do not hesitate: when faced with important negotiations, difficult counterparts or even potential conflicts, it is reassuring to be able to rely on a competent and experienced partner. Whether with individual coaching, back-up consultation or even an active role on your team.

Areas of consulting

Preparation of negotiations

Together with one of our negotiation experts, we analyse the initial situation and plan a strategy that promises success. After a thorough check of how you negotiate, you will learn about the necessary tools to put a successful change into practice.
You will be well prepared for complex negotiations: we help you coordinate your negotiating teams, practise during role plays and plan alternative scenarios using video analysis.

Support during important negotiations

Our negotiation experts actively support you during critical negotiations and give helpful feedback and tips.
This can be done in two ways:

We can either stay in the background without playing an active part in the negotiation itself. Or we can assist you during your actual negotiation in a role agreed in advance.

Analysis and improvements

Just as one important negotiation comes to an end, another will often be about to start. This is why we deem it essential to analyse what you’ve achieved so far and how you’ve got there, thus creating the basis for further improvements and sustainable outcomes. Together, we then focus on the future: securing and implementing the results of your negotiations, planning your follow-up strategy and taking your negotiation skills even further.

En GardE negotiation consulting takes our clients to the next level. Together we secure deals and maximise your return on your investment.
