What impresses me about Kwame: his ability to take emotionally charged topics like negotiation and make them approachable and maybe even fun! I’ve been delighted to have him as a guest on The Introvert Entrepreneur Podcast twice, as well as a speaker for my Virtual Networking for Introverts. In all three instances, he offered valuable information in a relaxed, good-natured manner that made learning easy. I appreciated how he engaged the audience and made them active participants in the conversation. His sense of humor and smarts combine to make every interaction a pleasure. And his enthusiasm for negotiation and persuasion is contagious! Highly recommend him as a speaker.

After seeing Kwame present on negotiations and dispute resolution and hearing his podcast, Negotiate Anything, Kwame guest lectured for my MBA negotiation class and did a great job. He has a deep knowledge of and enthusiasm for negotiation and dispute resolution theory and a very engaging, interactive presentation style. I highly recommend Kwame as a presenter and negotiation expert.

Kwame presented at a recent continuing education seminar for business lawyers that I helped to organize. Kwame’s presentation on negotiation for attorneys was excellent. He was very engaging, asking questions of the audience and encouraging participation. I received feedback from several attendees after the seminar who said that Kwame’s presentation was “superb.” I recommend Kwame for anyone looking to improve their negotiation skills.

Kwame is an excellent speaker. Every time I listen in, whether it’s a face-to-face event or podcast, I leave with more knowledge than I when I started. His empowering message on negotiation has helped me break through false barriers hindering my success. He is a highly effective speaker, and I wholeheartedly endorse the man, his message, and his delivery.

Kwame has a way of delivering a seemingly complicated message on negotiation with ease and simplicity. He demonstrates how anyone can have a successful negotiation by implementing his strategies. When Kwame speaks you want to be in attendance. It could literally save you thousands of dollars in the future.

Kwame recently gave an outstanding presentation on Negotiation at the Ohio State Bar Association. It was highly engaging and informative, our members took away many key points that were not only timely but very applicable to their business and practice. If you are looking to invigorate your company and/or business with new ideas and outside of the box thinking in regards to business relationships and development, I would highly consider reaching out to Kwame.

I recommend Kwame as a negotiating coach as he has been instrumental in developing confidence in my business negotiations. Like Kwame, I am a licensed attorney with coursework in negotiation under my belt. Prior to this, I negotiated with photographers and publications as a photo editor. Negotiation is something I have always felt comfortable with, but never appreciated how much more I had to learn until I began using Kwame’s podcast and private coaching.

With my own new business launching, I have utilized various strategies to prepare for and participate in numerous negotiations. These preparations have left me more confident, exercising better control of my emotions, and learned a fascinating thing or two about myself in the process. I strongly recommend Kwame for the above stated reasons and for many more that you will discover for yourself.

He was very charismatic and did a great job of encouraging engagement and interaction with the audience, which can often be challenging. Kwame’s suggestions regarding negotiation strategy and conflict resolution would be beneficial to attorneys in many practice areas. Kwame has been a great asset to OSBA and we look forward to having him speak at future programs!!

Kwame is a dynamic and engaging presenter. I recently attended one of his negotiations presentations, and there’s no question that he is extremely passionate and knowledgeable about this topic. His presentation was extremely interactive. Kwame was obviously energized by the dialogue and questions. His group activity was not only well-executed and well-planned, but it was actually a great activity! (We all know how those go sometimes!) It really demonstrated how two parties can negotiate in a non-adversarial manner with their own goals in mind and reach an agreement where both parties could walk away feeling like they got a “win”. It was interesting to see that every group reached a different deal, despite having the same scenario, and both parties in every group felt like they were able to negotiate a deal where their top priorities were realized.

This information is truly invaluable. Whether it’s negotiating at work, negotiating a purchase, or negotiating chores around the house, negotiation is such a necessary skill set, especially in such an adversarial world these days. I could see this being extremely beneficial to attorneys (this should be a CLE!) or anyone else who needs to reach an agreement while maintaining a good business or personal relationship on a regular basis (aka, everyone). I have already integrated several of his tips into my negotiations, and I’ve seen great results. Also, check out the American Negotiation Institute’s podcast on iTunes! Kwame’s podcasts are extremely entertaining and provide a ton of valuable information as well! Thanks, Kwame!

I am a collegiate level computer art, animation & design instructor at Columbus State Community College (CSCC) & Columbus College of Art & Design (CCAD). I had the opportunity to work with Kwame last semester, Fall 2016. He presented to my Professional Practice course, consisting of 98 senior design students from Advertising & Graphic Design, Cinema & Animation, Interior Design, Industrial Design, and Fashion.

Kwame did an exceptional job of conveying the importance of negotiation to designers that will no doubt encounter situations where these skills can be apply. Kwame’s ability to connect with the audience through his stage presence allowed the students to engage and participate during the conversation. He made it clear negotiating can be learned through 4 key factors, while reinforcing the importance of asking questions.

The presentation was a success because of his knowledge and commitment to helping future professionals gain vital information. I received plenty of positive feedback on the presentation, content and overall interest. I sincerely hope to work with Kwame in the future. I will definitely invite him to speak during any of my courses if given the opportunity.

Kwame Christian is a dynamic negotiations coach and his support for my professional and personal development is unmatched. He is helping me identify key blocks to my success story, most of which are internal, and facilitating my plan to gain what I want out of life.
He administers assessments for customized, data-based intervention, and holds me accountable to myself. I have a safe place to practice my negotiation skills in mock settings with others to reinforce what I learn. I plan to use these skills in law school and in business.
I am on a better path as a business owner, manager, student and human because of Kwame’s expert guidance. I highly recommend as a speaker for yourself or your staff.
