He has established a client list that includes organizations like Finning\, Lafarge\, NHL Coaches Association\, BC Hydro\, Rogers Wireless\, APEG BC\, SNC Lavalin\, Klohn Crippen Berger and many more.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat previous participants said: \n“Found it productive and informative.” \n“A great course for personal and business relationships.” \n“Very informative. I learned a lot about my current habits and weaknesses to overcome.” \n“Great catalyst for a lot more than negotiating.” \n\n\n\n\n Register Now!
