What is the Operationally-Sound AI Negotiation course about?
Traditional procurement negotiation models weren't built for AI-mediated interactions, dynamic supplier ecosystems, or real-time compliance tracking. As AI tools become embedded in sourcing workflows, professionals lack structured methods to maintain operational soundness while leveraging automation. This gap leads to inconsistent outcomes, audit exposure, and missed leverage in high-stakes conversations.
