TWS Partners is not just "a" but likely "the" leading consulting firm in the area of advanced GAME THEORY. Our expertise generates unprecedented impact in procurement, sales and other high-stake-negotiations. When just doing another tender is not enough, when company-critical negotiations with suppliers, customers, unions, regulators etc. require highest negotiation excellence, TWS is here to help. 5 Reasons why you should contact us: 1) Different to most big consulting firms, our consultants are not "generalists" who do today-this-tomorrow-that but highly specialized from the very beginning of their career. 2) In consequence we have more specialists than firms with thousands of consultants in all their vertical and horizontal practices. 3) We only charge days of value-adding-time and do not require full-time staffing like most other firms do. 4) Compared to most "negotiation coaches" we rarely do training courses or seminars but help our clients hands-on during their actual negotiations. 5) Quite many coaches emphasize their background as hostage negotiators. Which is an art, for sure, but in b2b negotiations you do not want to be limited to psychological levers but leverage the full spectrum of game theory, behavioral science AND advanced analytics. Reach out, OPTIMIZE NEGOTIATIONS to MAXIMIZE YOUR SUCCESS.
