Cost inflation, spiralling energy costs and supply chain pressures have eased somewhat recently but this is now leading to some customers putting pressure on suppliers to revise costs down. Strong negotiation skills are clearly required for ongoing customer engagement, whether to retain the price increases secured, to grow a listing or to secure a different agreement. Negotiation skills continue to be as critical as ever.


Bord Bia’s Client Capability team is offering another of our hugely popular group-based ‘Negotiation Fundamentals: Practical Skills Development Programme’ to prepare clients for difficult customer conversations.
The content will be a mix of pre-course learning, virtual tutorial workshop and in-person experiential role play training. Malachy O’Connor and Mark Francis of Uspire Ltd will partner with Bord Bia on the delivery of this programme, leveraging their industry experience from both the buyer and supplier sides of the negotiating table. This training is a must attend for anyone looking to optimise their selling and negotiation performance with customers.

It is also essential to complete course pre-work and a short participant survey. (These will be sent to you once your registration is approved and place confirmed).

Note: This training is available to Bord Bia Client Companies only.
