Successful Bargaining Strategies Amidst Dwindling Education Funding
RumbergerKirk partner Leonard Dietzen presented during the 43rd Annual Spring Conference of the Florida Educational Negotiators on Thursday, May 4.
During his presentation, he shared that bargaining is a deliberate process. Education about your district’s finances helps the board members make sound decisions.
