Slugs at Sundown – Negotiating for Mutual Gains

Whether you are aiming to land a new job, advocate for a promotion, navigate a complex workplace dynamic, or secure resources for your latest project, negotiation is a universal skill essential for every stage of your career. Join fellow Banana Slug Scott McCreary for an interactive session designed for early and mid-career professionals. While Scott’s career has focused on high-stakes environmental disputes, the core principles of his “Mutual Gains” approach apply to challenging negotiations of all kinds.
Using real-world vignettes from his 35-year practice, Scott will illuminate key strategies you can apply to your own professional journey, in conversation with UCSC Alumni Engagement Executive Director Shayna Kent. There will be ample time for an open Q&A and interactive discussion.
