Student testimonials

It worked beautifully

“I followed it step by step and worked beautifully. They told me it was the best request they had seen for a bigger package.”

INSEAD MBA student

New employer paying my fees

"The negotiation went very well thanks!  After getting a formal letter of a job offer - I went in person to negotiate the terms further.  The new employer has agreed for my company to pay for my MBA fees for next year in full.  With a salary review in the diary for Oct. Thanks you so much for the excellent videos! I have recommended you to several people."

EMBA student, Imperial College

Daniel Porot is a clear genius 

“Daniel Porot is a clear genius and outstanding negotiation adviser. All contributors to the site were excellent, but Daniel stands out as the clear leader in the field.”

UCD Michael Smurfit student

The videos are brilliant

“The combination of academics and practitioners as guest speakers, and actors to role-play the situations, produces an engaging learning experience.

 

Also, the learning points are very clear: not too many, not too few and their writing on the screen facilitates the memorization process.”
