Using this playbook, legal teams can approach the negotiations methodically and templatize the process for faster turnaround times. In this template, you will find an end-to-end playbook to negotiate NDAs which can be adapted to negotiate any other contract type as well. The playbook includes:

• Classification between negotiation position as a recipient or discloser of confidential information
• Simple language explanation of key clauses so that business teams can understand the relevance and significance of the clause
• Standard and fallback positions for each clause
• Recommended approval workflows for deviations
• Sample standard clauses for easy copy and pasting

With some additional work - this NDA playbook template can also be adapted to work with any other contract type you need.
