NATIONAL NEGOTIATION AND COMMUNICATION EXPERTS SPEAK IN NEW YORK
Lee Miller and Dyana Koelsch bring NegotiationPlus and Critical Communication Skills for Women to New York
Orem, UT January 19, 2006 -- Makau Corporation, a rising training provider that
bridges the gap between learning and applying what’s learned by providing organizations
with the newest generation of solutions for individual and enterprise-wide training by
incorporating advanced e-learning concepts with traditional on-site workshops,
announces live training sessions with Lee Miller and Dyana Koelsch, on March 21-22,
2006 at The Harvard Club in New York NY.
Lee Miller and Dyana Koelsch begin their four city speaking tour in New York with the
popular topics NegotiationPlus for Women and Critical Communication Skills for
Women.
This course is for women involved in hiring, selling or buying, women who manage
businesses or departments and women seeking to move their careers to the next level.
According to Lee E. Miller, a principal at NegotiationPlus.com, co-host with Makau’s
EVP Barbara Jackson of Your Career Doctors radio show and one of Makau
Corporation’s featured experts, every woman needs to know how to move her career to
the next level.
“I believe negotiating is a critical element of both leadership and personal success,” said
Miller. “I want to enable women to better understand their own personal style and to
become better negotiators.”
NegotiationPlus is based on groundbreaking research from the best-selling book A
Woman’s Guide to Successful Negotiating, How to Convince, Collaborate and Create
Your Way to Agreement (McGraw Hill), selected by Atlanta Woman Magazine as one of
the 50 best books for professional women and featured on ABC’s Good Morning
America. According to Lee, mastering the art of negotiating will help you break through
the glass ceiling.
Makau has teamed up with NegotationPlus.com and New Harbor Group to create and
distribute insightful training in the areas of negotiation, interviewing, active listening,
customer service, sales, message creation and delivery and offensive and defensive
communication strategies. As a training company with a wide range of training titles and
technology, Makau is able to integrate Lee and Dyana’s courses into corporate training
systems, online learning systems and computer-based learning products. These
knowledge products play a strong role in Makau’s offerings in the areas of professional
