Speakers for 15th DevClub.lv:
- Andrei Kedrov and Armands Melvags will talk about "Aikido of Powerful Negotiations"
(Language – Russian)
How to conduct successful negotiations and agree with the boss for a pay rise? How to explain to a colleague what you really want from him? How to get permission from your wife (don't try it with husbands, please!) to visit a noisy party in the sauna with friends of both sexes? We negotiate every day and every hour. How can you, Mr or Ms IT-guy, earn more by working easier ? How to successfully negotiate in order to realize your ingenious design, development or idea?
We'll be in fun to share our experience of negotiating in IT projects, and we will work together with you to find answers to the above questions. Everyone will be able to start using some of the techniques of truly profitable, powerful and successful negotiations. Isn't it exciting? You're right! It is 🙂
The program is based on the latest techniques developed by leading coaching schools in the world and the company SuccessLAB, SIA (www.successlab.lv).
