get to know: the female negotiator

First of all, in order to understand the inspiration behind The Female Negotiator it’s important to note my two big passions:

1.  Helping women succeed.
2.  All things negotiations.

These passions are the real reason why I started this platform: to help all of you become the most confident, successful negotiators you can be.

You might be wondering how my background has led me directly to you. So here it is: I started my career at a large Fortune 50 company in Minneapolis (you might recognize their iconic red branding in the shape of a bullseye). Here, I held various merchandising roles where I was in charge of multi-million-dollar businesses and hundreds of vendor partnerships. However, throughout all of these roles, I realized one particularly important thing: having strong negotiation skills is crucial to becoming a leader in business (and in life!), which is why I ultimately ended up joining their internal negotiations team.

In this role I was known for being a leader in negotiation strategy and implementation, generating millions of dollars in cost savings, pure profit improvement, and growth for key businesses like Toys, Electronics, and Beauty. While this work was extremely rewarding, I knew I wanted to take my skills and make an even larger impact for more people across more industries.

Which brings me to where i am today:

I am a Senior Engagement Manager - and leading female - at Conlego Consulting. We specialize in strategic partnerships, negotiations, retail, and overall making extraordinary impact for a wide range of companies. You’re right, this couldn’t be more of a perfect fit!

By launching The Female Negotiator, I get to expand our services and create a platform to reach all of you directly. Whether you are individuals looking to develop your own negotiation techniques, or companies wanting to empower your staff – you’ve come to the right place and the right woman to work with.

So, in true Kryssa fashion:
Let’s go make it happen.
