Take-a-ways from some of the attendees:

“He is very experienced and down to earth in negotiation. The main strength of the event is the “envelope” usage.
Simon Su – Regional Director, Ambank (M) Bhd

“Jim manages to teach a dry subject by using something very exciting and practical. He interspersed the lectures with very interesting exercise & case studies. We are exposed to the best practice and practical topics on how to negotiate.”
Muhamad Bazil – General Manager, Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB)

“Jim speaks from his heart and is real to all of us. The main key strength of this is session is learning how to negotiate. Kexxel Group is new to our company and there will be opportunities for more business training. I learned about establishing an envelope, where in negotiation I have to look at the opening, target and bottom line. It makes me realize that in any negotiations, I must prepare myself by doing my homework. When it comes to establishing the envelope I have to know the bottom line which I cannot go beyond. This training is good for opening minds when it comes to new outlooks on how to achieve win-win negotiations. Jim is fabulous; he talks non-stop and knows his work at the tip of his finger. Good organizer.”
Lynda Tan Giew Kiew – Assistant General Manager (Credit & Marketing), Pac Lease Berhad


“The strengths of this event are the speaker and the content of the material.What I learned most in this training is the rules of negotiation. I think Jim has done well in segregating negotiations into rules that we really need to focus on. This workshop is interesting because Jim provides a lot of case studies. It is very challenging but it is how we learn to apply the rules, which all of us try to put into practice.”
Christine Lee – Managing Director, Medi-Life (M) Sdn Bhd

“Jim has shared information as much as he can on all the questions asked. It helps me increase the knowledge and skills of negotiation. Kexxel provided full support throughout the training.”
