Founder

Created The Edge Negotiation Group to combine strategy, behavioral psychology, and practical execution into a system that transforms negotiation performance.

Most negotiation training ends when the workshop does.

Not with the EDGE.

Negotiation is learned one negotiation at a time.

The best negotiators are developed through preparation, practice, coaching, and continuous reinforcement. Thatโ€™s why every engagement at The Edge extends far beyond the classroom.
