11:20 - 12:10 Guest Speaker: Never Split The Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It

Learn how to solve business communication problems with hostage negotiation solutions. A 24-year veteran of the FBI, Chris Voss retired as their lead international kidnapping negotiator and authored the book Never Split The Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It.

The negotiation methodology he’ll share with you centers around “Black Swans,” small pieces of information that have a huge effect on an outcome. Not only does Chris believe the negotiation process needs to be tailored to draw out these complexities, but also he and his team negotiate in a way that has a huge impact on influencing an outcome. Chris’ presentation will help you secure and close better deals, save money, and solve internal communication problems, all essential skills for leading a world-class service organization.

Additional deal: All attendees will receive a copy of Chris’ recently released book Never Split The Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It!

12:10 - 12:20 Advancing Service Action Steps Exercise

We guarantee you’ll be inspired by fresh and innovative ideas at Field Service, and that you’ll make new contacts to help you achieve your goals. But sometimes after an event, we get back to our offices and into the flurry of our day-to-day work, and the ideas planted at Field Service don’t receive the nurturing they deserve. We are committed to supporting you in advancing service NOW, not in 6 months or 6 years. This short but sweet exercise will ensure you take the beginning action steps necessary to apply what you’ve learned at Field Service to your organization immediately.
Sit down with a speaker from the morning to hear more about their service strategies or choose a new focus area you want to gain new insight on. Either way, a breadth of expertise will be shared and you get to ask the questions you need answers to. Be sure to divide and conquer with your teammates!
