Presentations
Through speeches, trainings and consultations, Peter teaches professionals how to achieve maximum results in any kind of negotiation. Working
with a large variety of corporate, government, and non-profit groups
and associations, Peter combines lecture, audience interaction, and
“Q&A” to create the most dynamic and compelling presentations
possible.
Peter is
flexible in meeting client needs: Everything from 45-minute breakfast
events, to 90-minute keynote speeches, to trainings lasting several
hours or several days. The “takeaways” for participants include
learning how to manage conflict, how to engage in the art and science
of negotiation, and how to respond to different personality types, and
different negotiation styles. And Peter's presentations resonate with
everyone in the organization. As one client put it, "We had a great
cross section of members at this event and the information was
applicable to all attendees regardless of experience level."
Peter
has worked with groups of lawyers, doctors, journalists,
businesspeople, government managers, and public and non-profit
leaders. Several clients have been women’s groups whose members
believe becoming stronger negotiators is imperative to excelling in
today’s highly competitive work environment. Representative clients
include the USA
TODAY newspaper, the National Park Service, Turner Broadcasting System,
Inc., the American Marketing Association, and Women in Cable and
Telecommunications.
Peter
receives consistent and exceptionally high ratings from audiences and
event planners, scoring an average of 4.8 out of 5.0 based on hundreds
of respondents from a wide variety of groups and associations.
By
combining traditional lectures with simulated negotiation exercises,
role plays, and other group exercises, participants can learn from
Peter as well as from each other. The information is powerful, fun to
learn, and immediately useful in all aspects of life, both personal and
professional. As one participant noted on his program evaluation form,
“Tremendous for me both as an attorney and as an ecclesiastic leader. Not bad information for me as a spouse and father as well.”
Specializing
in developing customized presentations and trainings, Peter can work
with an organization to quickly pinpoint the kind of negotiations in
which members tend to be involved, as well as the types of barriers
currently preventing the achievement of favorable agreements. Specific
materials, role plays and exercises can be selected in order to teach
and “drill” the competencies and skills most relevant in addressing
problems faced by a particular organization or industry.
“The
feedback has been extremely positive and your program has been noted as
one of our strongest programs this year…We hope to work with you again
in the future.”

gave a highly interactive presentation…Using excellent materials, Peter
encouraged them to participate through simulations and exercises, thus

“Peter,
an expert in negotiation strategies, created a training that he
specifically designed for nonprofit executives…Peter is one of the most
gifted instructors I have ever come across—and I have been involved in
executive education training for the past thirteen years. His
mastery of the theory, blended with a dynamic and engaging presence in
the classroom, make him an ideal teacher/trainer in any classroom
setting….I’ve now had the opportunity to observe Peter in a variety of
training sessions, working with people as diverse as the sector we
represent, from public interest lawyers to national association CEO’s. Peter
has a special talent for connecting with people, engaging them in their
learning, and providing concrete strategies and tools along the way.”

“I
have over 23 years of experience in the field of training and
education…As a presenter, Peter strikes an excellent balance between
subject matter expert and storyteller, key to maintaining listener
interest. He illustrates all of his points with examples,
frequently asking members of the audience to contribute their own, thus
personalizing the content…I heartily endorse Peter Reilly as a speaker
for your organization.”
