What is the Cross-Functional AI Negotiation course about?

Even the most promising AI-driven procurement strategies fail when they don’t align with board-level risk thresholds. Technical teams overpromise, legal teams slow approvals, and procurement leaders are left without a clear framework to negotiate trade-offs. The result: missed savings, delayed innovation, and eroded trust.
