You will apply BATNA thinking by building a structured pre-call planning sheet for a real-world negotiation. You will practice defining clear objectives, articulating a realistic BATNA, and planning concessions that protect your decision boundaries. The lesson emphasizes turning abstract negotiation concepts into a practical, repeatable preparation workflow that can be used across roles and industries. By completing a full pre-call plan, you will strengthen your ability to make confident, intentional decisions during negotiations.

Negotiate Collaboratively is an intermediate, hands-on course designed for B2B professionals who want to choose the right negotiation style and lead structured conversations that create measurable business value.

In this course, you will learn how to distinguish between competitive and collaborative negotiation approaches and determine when each is most effective based on factors such as relationship duration, strategic importance, and interdependence. Through guided coaching, a structured role play simulation, and an applied assessment, you will practice key collaborative negotiation techniques. These include opening conversations with shared purpose, uncovering underlying interests behind stated positions, and designing value expanding trade offs that protect profitability while strengthening long term partnerships. To benefit fully from this course, learners should be comfortable participating in business negotiations within sales, procurement, or partnership settings. By the end of the course, you will leave with a practical negotiation checklist and a repeatable framework that can be applied immediately in real world business negotiations.

"Plan & Debrief Deals is an intermediate-to-advanced course within the B2B Sales Negotiation: Leveraging AI Professional Certificate. In this course, you will strengthen two critical enterprise negotiation capabilities: structured preparation and disciplined post-deal review. You will learn how to design a negotiation plan that clearly defines your BATNA, stop-price boundaries, conditional trade-offs, and value-add options before entering a negotiation conversation.

Using a realistic enterprise renewal scenario, you will create a two-page negotiation brief that translates preparation principles into a practical planning artifact you can defend and explain. You will then analyze a recorded negotiation conversation and evaluate anchoring strength, silence discipline, and concession timing using a structured debrief checklist. Through these applied exercises, you will learn how to protect margin through thoughtful preparation and improve negotiation performance through reflective analysis. By the end of the course, you will have a repeatable approach you can use to prepare for enterprise negotiations and systematically improve your performance after each deal."

Anchor Price Like Pro is an intermediate, hands-on course designed for professionals who negotiate pricing and want to protect margin without slowing deals.

In this course, you will learn a repeatable structure to anchor high, define a controlled bracket range, and manage concession cadence across multiple negotiation rounds. This approach helps you avoid large early concessions that encourage buyers to push for deeper discounts. Through guided coaching activities and a solo three-round negotiation simulation, you will practice delivering a clear opening anchor, responding to common buyer pressures—such as budget constraints, competitor comparisons, or walk-away threats—and using trade triggers to exchange non-price value (such as extended payment terms, commitment length, or scope adjustments) instead of offering free discounts. You will also review a negotiation transcript to identify where concessions occurred. By tagging concessions by type, size, trigger, and buyer signal, you will map how price or margin moved during the negotiation and identify the first avoidable concession—an opportunity where a value trade could have protected margin. To benefit fully from this course, learners should be comfortable discussing pricing and margins and participating in structured negotiation conversations. Basic familiarity with common sales or procurement terms such as discounts, payment terms, margin, and concessions will be helpful. By the end of the course, you will leave with a practical negotiation playbook, a short trade plan for future negotiations, and a graded assessment that validates both your negotiation execution and your ability to analyze concession patterns.

Closing a deal is not about pushing harder — it’s about guiding decisions with clarity and structure. In this course, you will master the summary-then-choice closing technique, a practical method that shifts conversations from “whether” to move forward to “when” to begin. You will practice recapping agreed benefits and confidently presenting two implementation timelines to prompt commitment. Beyond execution, you will measure impact. You will track your close-rate across five real deals, compare results to your historical baseline, and evaluate whether the technique improves performance. By the end, you will not only apply a high-conversion close with confidence, but also validate its effectiveness using real sales data and report your results in a structured pipeline review.
