Drawing from years of experience in the sector, Kelland explains how recent disruptions, particularly the COVID-19 pandemic, have changed attitudes towards the negotiation process, providing opportunities for SMEs to leverage technology to their advantage.

Kelland outlines techniques available to stakeholders looking to renegotiate a deal no longer suited to their business’ circumstances.

The consultant also explains why flexibility is critical, explaining how stakeholders can be better prepared to manage unexpected changes to a contractual arrangement.
