She is a kick-ass business leader who has led large teams, negotiating deals and acquisitions worth millions and leading business units with hundreds of staff reporting up to her. As I watched her grab hold of this next rung I still had to quiet that internal narrative that tells me I spectacularly fell off that ladder.

You should come away from the initial meeting with enough information to feel confident that you are making the right choices for every aspect of the event. Events can be expensive especially if they are for team building or internal training. How to negotiate when planning an event. The agenda. Why are you holding an event?

Perhaps after some smart negotiating you can have it worked into the budget for future years. It’s a great way to build confidence and see what else is going on out there, you might find some great groups or training available locally. If training/travel aren’t an option it may be a goal to strive for as a reward for a job well done.

I knew we were going to go back to that city the next year so negotiated with the hotel that if I booked the next event at their venue would they waive the cancellation fee. Negotiation As you saw above, negotiation is possible. Fortunately, they were able to waive it and we only lost our $500 deposit. It is always worth asking.

And, depending on how powerful your script is, those internal voices can be pretty strong. Fact is that even if your internal script was broken, the outside reality was modified in your favor. Outstanding!

Feeling rather confident, I pushed it even further: I added a new table in the adding area (the one you actually see right now in the app, if you have it) in order to choose what type of item is added: a task, a project, an idea or an event. No more arguing or negotiating, I just started to code it.
