Take your negotiation skills to the next level with this hands-on, in-person workshop led by Professor Elena Zinchenko. Whether you're new to salary negotiation or looking for a refresher, this session is designed to provide practical exercise(s) different from those taught in Booth’s negotiations class.
What to Expect:
1. An interactive exercise tailored to help you build confidence and finesse in salary negotiations.
2. Expert guidance from Professor Zinchenko, with actionable strategies and insights.
3. Valuable for those who haven’t taken the negotiations class and a great refresher for those who have.
Don’t miss this opportunity to refine your skills and gain a competitive edge in your career negotiations!

Kick-off Spring Quarter with SAC as we go to La Serre in West Loop! We'll have a tab for food and frosty beverages!

This practice-intensive workshop is designed to actively strengthen your public speaking and executive presence skills. You’ll receive targeted feedback and guided practice in a supportive, low-stakes environment designed to help you experiment, build confidence, and sharpen your communication style.
1. Receive individualized feedback to help diagnose your speaking style and identify the presence skills that will make the biggest difference
2. Design a personalized improvement plan focused on the specific communication skills you want to strengthen
3. Practice through structured exercises, from low-stakes partner conversations to higher-stakes group speaking scenarios that simulate real pressure
4. Learn targeted techniques to improve those skills and continue developing your presence long after the workshop
By the end of the session, you’ll gain clear insight into your current style, practical tools to strengthen it, and the confidence that comes from real practice.
