“Hands down, the best and most relevant negotiation trainer I have ever worked with (and I’ve worked with a few)! Mike has an uncanny ability to relate the power of negotiating effectively, to anyone, in a way that is clear and actionable. A lot of training in this space stops with concepts – but the process and tools that TableForce provides leave a lasting impression that, many years later, I still personally use – at work, at home, anywhere!”

My Story
We all take different paths, mine was a long and winding road. At each step I thought I loved what I was doing, it turns out I only liked it (positive attitude) and was reasonably competent. Now I negotiate and teach negotiations full time. I LOVE helping people negotiate better deals and do better in life!
