From Nottingham to Singapore

In This Week’s Negotiation Edge

A Summer if Practice & Improvment 😎

Nottingham Law School Negotiation Day – 28 May

I’m delighted to announce that I’ll be back at Nottingham Law School at the end of May to run a full-day Negotiation Practice Workshop as part of their summer skills programme.

This is not a theory session. It’s a hands-on, practical workshop where students will actively practise negotiation skills essential for legal practice. With negotiation training becoming mandatory during pupillage from September 2025, this session couldn’t be more timely or relevant.

• Where: PG Centre, Belgrave, NTU
• When: Tuesday 28 May, 10:00–15:00
• Includes: Certificate of Completion, lunch, and refreshments
• To book: Email [email protected] with your name, student number, and dietary needs.

Nottingham Trent University has always been one of my favourite places to run sessions, and I’m genuinely looking forward to another fantastic day with some exceptional students.

Today: GOLD Club Meeting

Today is our GOLD Club meeting, and we’re expecting to welcome some new faces into the fold. These sessions are all about practising with purpose—short, structured negotiation rounds with feedback and reflection. Whether you’re new or experienced, every Club meeting is a chance to stretch your skills and build negotiation confidence.

We’ll be diving into some negotiation tactics and getting hands-on... as always.

A Conversation from Singapore

This week I had a great conversation with Scott Harrison, a fellow negotiation trainer based in Singapore. We share a mutual passion for making negotiation training practical, not theoretical and after just one call, we’re already exploring the idea of launching a Singapore Negotiation Club.

It’s early days, but the enthusiasm is there—and it’s a reminder that the appetite to practise negotiation isn’t just local.... It’s global!
