Join Bruce and Brad Kauffman as they demonstrate how “fair but tough” negotiations with GCs can help you build stronger relationships with GCs based on respect and integrity. In other words, standing up for your profession, your company, and your employees can much better serve your long-term success than simply accepting unfair contract terms. An unfair contract could be your last contract!
