Negotiating for Impact: Human Dynamics from the Front Lines
Negotiating for Impact: Human Dynamics from the Front Lines
What makes negotiations succeed when trust is fragile, stakes are high, and no one holds formal authority?
In this webinar, Erik Weytjens shares first-hand stories from pivotal negotiations across his career — from transforming labour relations through trust-based leadership to aligning thirty competing companies within a complex port ecosystem around a shared future. He also reflects on founding BoardCompanions, a fast-growing social impact organisation that mobilises senior executives to strengthen non-profit governance across Europe. Drawing on these experiences, Erik distils 10 practical insights on how human dynamics shape negotiation outcomes.
Designed for leaders, negotiators, and changemakers, this session offers actionable guidance on building trust, navigating complex multi-party negotiations, and creating durable value through collaboration—well beyond the signed agreement.

Power and Politics in Professional Careers
Power and Politics in Professional Careers
New York - 09h00 to 10h00 / London - 13h00 to 14h00 / Paris - 14h00 to 15h00 / Dubai - 17h00 to 18h00 / Singapore - 21h00 to 22h00
Many professionals believe that if they work hard, and deliver results, their careers will take care of themselves. They are wrong. Wanting “office politics” not to exist does not make it go away.
Part of the problem is that politics at work is hidden. Firms insist that decisions are meritocratic. Skilful operators conceal the extent of their political activity.
But power and politics are not a failure of professionalism, more a defining feature of knowledge work in large complex organisations. This is true in professional services, but also in finance, healthcare, education, government and beyond.
In this webinar, we will draw on Professor Laura Empson’s research into professional services firms to show how mid-career professionals can learn to better navigate power and politics at work.
We will discuss:
- How to see past the organogram and map real power at work
- Why political behaviour is not a bug, but an integral part of organisational life
- How much time and energy successful senior leaders devote to politics
- Why your rational business case may fail to persuade, and what to do instead
- How to better understand the psychological needs of your colleagues and bosses.

Now, Women Do Ask: A Call to Update Beliefs about the Gender Pay Gap
Now, Women Do Ask: A Call to Update Beliefs about the Gender Pay Gap
For decades, a common explanation for the gender pay gap has been that women are less likely to negotiate their salaries. But does this belief still hold today?
In this webinar, Professor Laura Kray examines new research on negotiation behaviour among working professionals, including MBA students and alumni from a leading U.S. business school. The findings challenge a long-standing assumption: women today report negotiating their salaries as often as—or even more often than—men.
Drawing on updated data and a reanalysis of earlier studies, this session explores how negotiation behaviours have evolved over time and why outdated beliefs about “women not asking” continue to shape perceptions about gender and pay.
Designed for leaders, managers, and professionals across industries, this webinar offers fresh insights into how stereotypes influence workplace decisions—and why updating our understanding of negotiation behaviour is essential for building more equitable organisations.
