IN THEIR OWN WORDS

Complex deal support & commercial impact

Having gone through his training and sought his expertise as a consultant for complex deals, we have consistently benefited from his insightful approach. Mark has a remarkable ability to add that extra layer of strategic thinking, which has greatly contributed to our negotiation success.

Clarisse Daniels

As the Founder of Lucky Saint, I am pleased to recommend Mark Davis for his expertise as a negotiation coach and advisor. He assimilated a lot of information and condensed it down into suggestions as to how and why bridging cultural differences would ensure smoother and more successful negotiations.

Luke Boase, Founder — Lucky Saint

Mark really understands and continually works to better understand how people tick and how to bring the commercial value to your business from this.

Alex Smith

Capability development

It was the perfect balance of theory and interaction/practice and Mark's training style is super engaging. I've come away with buckets more confidence than I had going in, as well as a clear strategy for putting my learnings into practice at work.

Nicola Platt

Mark's course was one of the best I have ever been on. Provided a really engaging, thorough course on negotiation, and really tailored a lot of the points towards our roles and what we wanted to achieve. The feedback on how I could maximise my negotiation style effectively was great too.

Luke Tomlinson

I particularly liked that this training focuses on the individual and how to maximise individual skills to develop modern and commercial negotiation strategies that work in practice.

Louise O'Neill

Cultural intelligence & facilitation

Mark moderated our session with exactly the right balance of challenge and control.
