Presentation
The course will be made of a mix of theory and application exercises, with at least one main role play per day. Those will be based on realistic scenarios and enable participants to practice negotiation in real-life settings. Extended class discussions will be used to guarantee comprehension of the course concepts and the creation of linkages with the participants' own experiences.
The course will cover universally applicable negotiation tools and methods. In particular, the following aspects will be presented: integrative vs. distributive negotiation settings, zone of possible agreement, planning and preparation, creativity, communication and process. The objective is to provide students with tools to better understand negotiation, and hence negotiate more effectively in various settings.
