”Mindful Negotiating has now presented twice for our bar association, which is the largest mandatory bar in the USA and which is always a very critical and skeptical audience.  [Their] programs are well received and are excellent in educating our members about the nuance of negotiation.  Lawyers are expected to be expert at negotiation but it is rarely a part of a lawyer’s educational experience.  It is even more rare for a lawyer to be under the wing of a mentor who is a skilled negotiator.  [Their] content is vital for lawyers to learn the basics and more advanced principles of negotiating.  Our members always benefit from time with [them].”

“Compass Security incident responders just got debriefed on yesterdays ransom negotiation simulations and we took away a myriad of important details to improve. Manage expectations, to be clear on outcomes, precise, about the wording, stay hard on problems and professional in tone…just to bring up a few. Thank you Mindful Negotiating and GroupSense to host the training for us. Great content and learnings!”

“Mindful Negotiating's program on negotiation was engaging, informative, and entertaining. The lessons presented were applicable to the practice of law, as well as negotiations in everyday life. They are great at incorporating their audience into the program and delivered a truly interactive experience even in a virtual format.”

“Yes, they [Mindful's trainers] come with impressive resumes. But, more than that, when it comes to training, they're a breath of fresh mountain air. They are real. They care about their clients. They have a spirit of inquiry. They understand people. I wholeheartedly give Mindful Negotiating a 5-star rating!”

“I think having Max as a coach in negotiation is similar to having a personal trainer in the gym. Whilst I can work out on my own, having a personal trainer/coach pushed me much harder and with Max, also provided an independent fresh mind, in order to achieve a better outcome!”

“I was immediately impressed with how the Mindful team showed up as subject matter experts and teammates. Max showed himself to be entirely self-possessed, a deeply skilled practitioner, great in front of an audience, and a creative and persistent problem solver. Max showed himself to be a consummate professional, an agile thinker, a great communicator, and a valuable teammate. I highly recommend Mindful Negotiating.”

“Max is a natural teacher and has a deep understanding of human interactions. It was powerful to learn how to use that knowledge to be effective in both business relationships and in my personal life to make sure that my negotiations are successful.”

“Working with Mindful Negotiation has been a game-changer for me—both personally and professionally. Max Bevilacqua brings a rare combination of emotional intelligence, strategic thinking, and deep empathy to the negotiation table. Whether I was navigating complex contract terms or high-stakes investor conversations, Max helped me clarify my goals, stay grounded, and show up with confidence. His approach isn’t just about winning—it’s about building lasting agreements that feel right for everyone involved. I can’t recommend Mindful Negotiation highly enough to any entrepreneur facing important, difficult decisions.”
