"No Fear Negotiation"
with John Tinghitella

John's career has taken him from the trenches of sales management, to the corner office, to owning his own business so he can realize his vision for success. A self-described "sales guy", he combines a strong sense for the creative solution with a keen lifelong passion. He's observed first-hand the unfairness of how much women contribute verses the rewards...which typically go to men. His negotiation message is the culmination of a career spent learning, applying, adapting, and giving back. "No Fear Negotiation for Women" is a simple, effective, and repeatable tool designed to help women achieve a negotiation mindset and advance their careers. John combines a deep understanding of the negotiation dynamic and personal insights in the challenges faced by women in business.
