Are you an Ethical Attorney Negotiator?

Shawn Leisinger

Centers for Excellence, Washburn, Topeka, KS

 

This CLE session will blend an initial live negotiation exercise with discussion and application of ethical issues and related rules arising out of that exercise. The initial exercise is based on the negotiation style and examples found on the “American Pickers” show and seeks to get participants to evaluate their personal negotiation style and how that affected the outcome of the “negotiation” session as compared to other participants.

Participants will be challenged to contemplate whether they feel they complied or may need to adjust their style and negotiation tactics
