Go beyond The Bottom Line with The Open University
Evan Davis and his guests discuss negotiating and commercial property.
It’s a stock scene in any movie involving business or finance – tense negotiations capped off by a bold move that either seals the deal or destroys it forever. Real life is never so dramatic – or is it?
This week we’ll talk about negotiating and get some tips from top business people who do it every day. Do they actually enjoy the process – or is it simply a means to an end?
Plus the panel will also talk about commercial property. The current credit crisis started in the American housing market, but the pain has spread around the world, and business property has not been spared. Our guests tackle everything from choosing the right location to knowing when to sell.
