Press Releases
(german statements are translated)
Lufthansa Technik AG, Kerstin Grannemann, Manager Stratetic Purchasing
“Dear Mr. Gamm:
I found the content of your seminars, as well as the structure, exceedingly valuable. Inspired by your training, I was able to explicitly communicate strategies and tactics to my colleagues during our in-house preparation phase. The negotiations that followed were fun and very successful. It is uncanny how successfully I am able to implement your seminar techniques into my everyday work tasks.”
Südtiroler Wirtschaftszeitung (South Tyrol Business Journal)
There are no standard solutions on how to conduct purchasing negotiations successfully. However, intensive negotiations preparation as well as flexibility and creativity in unexpected situations, can still make you very successful. This was apparent in Frieder Gamm’s lectures as the head consultant at the purchaser conference symposium of the trade association.
Fachzeitschrift „Einkäufer im Markt“
(Trade Journal „Buyer in the Marketplace“, Frieder Gamm Article: Negotiating with Monopolists)
Monopolists often have prominent positions inside their own supplier base. This is no coincidence, but rather a matter of their own doing. Monopoles evolve when companies are too fixated on certain technologies, appoint a single supplier too early, or fail to thoroughly search out alternative suppliers.
Top Hotel, Fachmagazin für das Hotel-Management
(Top Hotel, Trade Magazine for Hotel Management)
The participants are anticipating a first class strategic program about professional procurement management. Frieder Gamm impressively demonstrates practical methods in his multi-media lecture on how to successfully negotiate with even difficult counterparts.
