Cox and Watson to Present LES Webinar on Negotiating Techniques
Pamela Cox and Julie Watson will present a webinar on negotiating techniques for the Licensing Executives Society (LES) on Thursday, September 12, 2013 at 1:00 p.m. CST. The webinar, “Negotiating with Style: Using Negotiation Styles and Other Communications Tools for Better Results,” explores the concept that how we communicate can affect outcomes as much as what we communicate.
