Testimonials From Prior Courses/Workshops with Dr. Cain:
“He wowed them. And me.”
Bob Danzig, Former President, Hearst Newspapers
“I discovered Daylian Cain in a New York Times article about compelling teachers of negotiations. We researched him and engaged him to present to our Leader colleagues. He ‘wowed’ them. And me. Daylian is that rare person who looks like a stevedore, engages like a thespian, and teaches with a palpable passion. My best testimony to his effectiveness is the fact he engaged again to present to our newest Leader group in the next year.”
“Even our star sales reps got a lot out of it.”
Chris LI, President Micro-tech Endoscopy
“I had the pleasure of attending Daylian’s negotiations class at Yale. I loved it so much that I invited him to teach at our national sales meeting. It was real and relevant with real world discussions that we can apply right away. Thank you Daylian, we would love to have you back in the future!”
“I was able to get +30K base.”
Ashley T. Tucker, Sr. Program Manager
“Hi Professor! I wanted to share that I used your techniques from your MBA negotiation class in negotiating my salary after I graduated. I was able to get them up +$30K base, +$30K signing bonus and from a 10% to 15% bonus in the end. Thanks for the helpful advice!”
“Daylian’s work on negotiations is second to none.”
Dan Wade, President Hilti Canada
“Daylian's balance of understanding the way people think combined with real-life examples makes for a brilliant (and fun) course. Daylian brings a new view of negotiating to the (virtual) classroom. His realness makes the topic applicable to all."
“One of the most worthwhile classes I have taken.”
Aerin Jungmin Lee, Automotive Strategist
“[In his negotiation class in Seoul] Daylian was very engaging, passionate about teaching, and constantly tried to keep the class lively. I would highly recommend this."
“Daylian brings an unrivaled energy to any classroom, virtual or in-person.”
Demi Knight Clark, Chief Spark Igniter
"Daylian brings real-life stories & anecdotes beyond the 'case study' method. Daylian is also a master of the interactive - keeping you on your toes with questions, content, & class participation that help remember data & negotiating metrics in a real way for the 2020 business arena. End of story - Get in the Arena!
“Daylian shifts the focus from winning to driving success for everyone involved.”
Arjun Ganesan, CEO ANCERA
“I took Daylian’s MBA course on campus; he prepares you for real world situations. Daylian’s candor makes the material easy to comprehend. It was instrumental in translating tough situations into behavioral as well as mathematical constructs, which makes negotiation preparation very objective.”
“Daylian’s negotiation course at Yale was by far one of the most practical courses I ever took.”
Felix Deku, Finance Manager
"Daylian’s application of negotiation to everyday life ensures you maximize value for the rest of your life. From buying a new house, to buying a car, to negotiating a new job! I learnt life-long skills from his negotiation course, and I am forever grateful for that. Thank you Professor Daylian!”
“I learned how to justify, in precise detail, the value of whatever I am negotiating.”
Laurie Cameron Craighead, Financial Advisor
“From an earlier Executive MBA class with Dr. Cain, I learned how to substantiate the 'price' of whatever I need. Knowing my walk away price allows me to negotiate without emotion. It has helped me be a better money manager as I always know the price that I require in order to trade a position, and I have no problem walking away from a bad rate.”
“Daylian taught us how to be principled negotiators.”
Luis Arias, Fintech Specialist
“In my MBA class, Daylian taught us that arguing in favor of an action should not get a pass just because it appears to be ethical. He cared about making sure that we had the most solid, consistent arguments for arguing in favor of anything, be it something "good" or something "despicable." And, Daylian is the master of the devil's advocate! Your arguments in any negotiation will be rock solid after Daylian tears the first 100 down.”
“You will learn to negotiate while having fun.”
Maria Ximena Arguello, Talent Development Manager
“If you want to learn techniques on negotiating - from negotiating your job to negotiating with your toddler - this is a great course to take. You will learn what questions to ask, how to prepare, how to negotiate more than one issue at a time, and the best methods of walking away among other things. Most importantly, you will learn that there are ways to negotiate and build relationships at the same time. I totally recommended it!”
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this program for?
Anyone looking to learn a fun topic from one of the world’s top-rated executive educators
Business owners who realize that they have never had formal negotiations training
Seasoned sales pros, who want a fresh outlook on their craft
Young entrepreneurs who want a permanent edge going forward
People who want a short-cut to less stressful deal-making.
People who realize that an extra few %-points can be worth a fortune over a lifetime
Is this just another “win-win” lesson?
No. Dr. Cain often says, “If you want X, and they want X, you do not need a Yale professor to tell you to do X; let me help with the harder stuff.”
Can you improve my skill in a short time?
Yes. For example, when Cain’s live 3-hour negotiations workshop for automotive dealers began at Yale, many of those in attendance were multi-millionaire sales pros who were naturally skeptical that they could learn anything about negotiations “from an afternoon with a professor.” Cain’s negotiation training earned a perfect 5.0 rating from that room of 20+ seasoned pros. If they can learn something new about negotiations, so can you.
Is this program university affiliated?
No. This program is not affiliated with Yale University or any other academic institution.
Is this program worth the price?
This program is not as expensive as doing business without this knowledge! Execs regularly pay $20-30K per day to have Dr. Cain train their team. So, even at full price, this program a very smart investment. How much is an extra 20% of value from your future negotiations worth to you?
Why now?
For us: This self-paced program was inspired by the calls for help on negotiations that Dr. Cain received while the pandemic raged.
For you: The best time to enroll in a program like this is similar to the “best time to plant a tree…” either a long time ago, or right now.
