CreativeLive will host a free, interactive, multi-day class on negotiation and workplace communication for creative of all stripes - designers, photographers, musicians, actors, etc.
Beginning June 23, author, design powerhouse, and entrepreneur Ted Leonhardt will share his expertise over three days of live education designed to help creatives negotiate the salaries they deserve.
Leonhardt will help explore negotiating as a collaboration in which creatives guide those they are negotiating with. Students will learn how to use time and context to define opportunities, create contracts instead of proposals, and align people with their vision.
"Creatives are vastly underpaid, vastly undervalued for what they contribute," explains Leonhardt, "what I've learned is that knowing the value of your expertise and how to leverage it is the most powerful foundation for negotiating a great deal with anybody."
