In the art of negotiating, "splitting the difference" is never an acceptable compromise.  In negotiations against major technology vendors, splitting the difference can mean unknowingly leaving millions on the table and obligating your institution to long-term risk you can't clearly see in contracts today.  Most bankers can strike a winning loan deal with their customers any day of the week because you own that domain, but when it comes to technology contracts, let's face it - you're outgunned.

Join expert negotiator Aaron Silva to gain real-world insights into the negotiating philosophies and tactics used against bankers by these very sophisticated vendors.  You will leave this session armed with the 10 Negotiating Commandments You Should Never Break in any type of business negotiation.
