Negotiation is an important skill, both professionally and personally.

In this second program on negotiation, we will introduce "smart bargaining" and focus on such topics as interests, option generation, and objective standards. This program will be interactive.

Taught by Chris Guthrie, Professor of Law, from Vanderbilt University Law School. The program is FREE and open to the public. To attend, you must RSVP to info@tnvla.org by Mon., Feb. 9th. Priority will be given to people who attended the first negotiation seminar in October.
