AMBAA Club Relaunch Recap: Why Negotiation Skills Drive Productivity

18 September 2026 · 2 min read

Congratulations to the AMBAA team for putting together such a relevant and insightful event. Thanks as well to Mitch Kornman from McKinsey & Company for his time and for sharing thought-provoking thoughts on productivity in New Zealand.

The event reminded us how closely workplace productivity is tied to negotiation skills. Whether you’re starting a business, aiming for a promotion, closing deals, hiring, or just having everyday conversations, negotiation plays a big role.

This is the gap we’re aiming to close with Arodly.

Most people only get better at negotiation the hard way: by handling real situations with real stakes, often without getting honest feedback on how they could improve.

We’re creating a community where anyone can safely practice negotiation skills against a smart opponent and get feedback after each session. It’s like Duolingo, but for negotiation.

If you’d like an early look, leave a comment or send us a message. We’d love for you to join the Arodly community as one of our first users.
