COURSE 1: Preparing Contracts This course allows participants to understand the process of effectively and efficiently preparing contracts to ensure value for money, improved services, and appropriate relationships. It is easy to overlook the importance of preparing contracts because it appears to be a boring, mundane task. Contracts, however, are the basis of most business relationships and contract preparation is a critical skill for most executives. If contracts are well prepared, business relationships will flourish. If they are not, companies may face financial loss, relationship harm, and damaged reputations. Furthermore, because contracts are made with vendors, employees, customers, and partners these agreements must be prepared carefully. In order to effectively do this, it is necessary to understand the small details and pay attention to the cultural nuances between the East and West because this usually has a significant impact on outcomes.
