I
found the Mustor techniques to be very eye opening.
Once taught, they became very natural in assisting the
interrogation of contract documents.

I
am really grateful for Mustor! Today I had the first face to face with a
subsidiary who was refuting the contract and disputing various points.
Luckily, I had CHUNKED it, so when I was talking to these people, I could
fight fire with fire. These
people were the head of legal counsel for a foreign subsidiary and head of
legal counsel at our company here in
Germany
. Phew! I
was worried, but went smoothly. We have a lot of confusion with our new
brand license contract, so many legal heads all talking together about
what action to take. I CHUNKED all of our contracts and found a clear path
forward. Now, in our meetings,
I can contribute with confidence that I understand the contracts and what
our roles and responsibilities are. Best of all, I know what I have to do.

1 Mustor Chunking
Distilling
clauses to it main operative components was helpful.
It provides better understanding of the terms used in contracts and
how they can potentially be debunked.

“This
course is unique because instead of merely teaching our staff that they
should write with the reader in mind, use a process, eliminate unnecessary
words, and use punctuation; it actually provides concrete guidance on how
to achieve each of them.”

Academic Testimonials
“I
must begin by saying again what a powerful tool I believe the Mustor
techniques to be. It should be a mandatory part of every project
management / construction management course in the country. Add law
courses to that list. While I see much value in what the
System can contribute at the so-called “back end” of building
contracts in the arbitration, litigation, mediation and adjudication
areas, it is in “up front” areas where the targets should be, on the
assumption that prevention is better than cure.“Mr Charles Hart

“I
have recently had the privilege of previewing the Mustor Techniques. The
method offers an ingenious way of exposing the logical structure of the
clauses found in contracts and legislation. In my opinion, the Mustor
Technique has the potential to be a significant communication tool. It can
be used to clarify and simplify compliance conditions for contracts, which
can help at the negotiation, planning and drafting stage. The clarity of
the conditions will also be useful in the auditing of compliance. In a
similar way, the compliance conditions for legislation can also be
identified. Because the Mustor Technique may be used to simplify the
structure of a sentence without changing the meaning, I believe the it has
the potential to revolutionize the way contracts and legislation are made,
resulting in better communication between parties and in simpler and
clearer requirements.”
