Who is this community for?
If you have professional experience and involvement in procurement, contracting, legal matters, management, entrepreneurship, project execution or sales, you stand to reap significant benefits from community membership.
We maintain the right to decline membership applications. One of our core concerns is building and maintaining a well-balanced group whose membership reflects a solid background in the negotiating arts.
Monthly Session Format and Protocols
Each monthly session will include a presentation on a specific topic by Mr. Keld Jensen, a Q&A session and a case introduced by a group member. The case will be discussed by the group and Mr. Jensen, with the objective of providing the case presenter with substantive and constructive feedback.
If additional advice is needed beyond what can be provided during the session, Mr. Jensen will be available for up to one additional hour to discuss the case with its presenter.
As a member of the community, it is expected you will be an active participant in monthly sessions and in general.
As a condition of admission to the group, we ask that you sign an NDA. This will allow free discussion of cases presented. To assure participants’ anonymity, we recommend that substitute names for individuals and companies be used throughout presentations and discussions.
Upcoming Topics

-
- Let’s be real: We most often negotiate to improve our financial outcome. But how?
-
- With a zero-sum approach, where we win at our counterpart’s expense?
-
