Setting Boundaries training objectives

  • Master techniques for setting boundaries in professional contexts with certification

  • Implement effective closing strategies while preserving margins
  • Optimize prospecting by identifying and setting clear boundaries from the first contact
  • Design assertive responses to recurring sales objections

Setting Boundaries curriculum: 4 modules over 4 days

Module 1 : Fundamentals: Identify and set personal boundaries in prospecting (self-assessment tools, prioritization grids)

Discover your own boundaries through advanced self-diagnostics and guided introspective exercises, analyze real cases of failed prospecting due to lack of assertiveness, prioritize your sales objectives with decision matrices, practice simulations of first contacts where you set clear boundaries on your offers, receive personalized feedback from the trainer to refine your posture, and create an individual action plan applicable the next day in the company.

Module 2 : Negotiation: Advanced techniques for setting boundaries in the face of objections (assertive scripts, structured role-plays)

Dive into interactive workshops on objection handling, build personalized scripts to politely refuse excessive demands while maintaining the deal, simulate tense negotiations with reluctant partners, use tools like the DESC model to structure your responses, analyze videos of expert negotiators, integrate reformulation techniques to refocus on your boundaries, and validate your skills through filmed role-play situations with group debriefing.

Module 3 : Closing: Strategies to close while imposing contractual boundaries (contract templates, signature simulations)

Master assertive closing through practical exercises on deal finalization, learn to set boundaries on discounts and clauses using negotiated templates, role-play last-minute scenarios where you refuse unnecessary concessions, explore company case studies that preserved 20% margins thanks to this approach, integrate digital tools to track your boundaries in real time, and develop a personal closing kit with checklists and ready-to-use key phrases.

Module 4 : Synthesis: Integrate setting boundaries into daily sales practice (coaching, company follow-up plan)

Consolidate your skills through individual coaching in pairs, apply setting boundaries to a personal simulated project under real conditions, review previously covered tools with an interactive quiz and timed challenges, share experiences in a group to inspire company-specific adaptations, receive your Qualiopi certifying certificate, and leave with a 30-day follow-up plan including coaching calls and digital resources for immediate and measurable implementation.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Setting Boundaries training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
