Institute Director

Founded by Wendeen H. Eolis in 2006, Eolis Institute for Leadership provided advanced training in negotiation strategies, often referencing gambits used at poker table as a metaphor for effective strategies in complex transactions. During the past five years, Wendeen has offered up individual leadership coaching and has conducted workshops and seminars on people reading, leadership and negotiating strategies.

Negotiating Strategies are Decoded

Perform! Wendeen counts more than five decades of deal-making experience. She says, “Negotiations, are a poker game filled with bets, raises, calls, and folds--only sometimes played with cards."

EOLIS coaching programs address the notion of mysterious aptitude and putting comprehension of complicated psychological research to the side. Instead, she emphasizses the connection between common sense, behavioral people reading prowess, verbal people reading focus, and four fundamental negotiating strategies to excel in both professional and personal pursuits.
