Co-author of "Her Place at the Table" and "Nice Girls Just Don't Get It," Carol Frohlinger is an internationally known speaker on the ways women can negotiate with authenticity to achieve their maximum personal and professional potential. Her depth of expertise and unique perspectives have empowered thousands of women to negotiate more confidently, competitively and competently in all aspects of their lives.

With humor and practical advice she demystifies the negotiation process, providing women with the tools needed to advocate themselves and get results not only for them, but for their organizations as well. High energy, a wealth of experience, and the ability to connect with audiences of all ages and stages of their careers result in audience comments such as "engaging," "thought-provoking," and "dynamic." Even the most reluctant negotiators in her audiences agree that her presentations provide critical skills that enable them to "negotiate with the best of them!"

Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase, the Healthcare Business Women's Association, Pricewaterhouse Coopers, The Principal Financial Group, the New York State Bar Association, and the National Association of Women Lawyers are just a few of the organizations and professional associations to whom Carol has spoken, often calling upon her time and again to share her wisdom with employees, clients and members.
