Strategic Negotiations

Our days are filled with negotiation and conflict, from everyday disputes to job negotiations, from coalition-building to boardroom bargaining. This course aims to help students improve their skills in two fundamental ways. One is knowledge-oriented: students learn concepts and frameworks for analyzing and preparing for bargaining. A second route is practice-oriented: students engage in a sequence of hands-on activities, practicing and reflecting, building self-awareness, and honing their skills for creating and claiming value.
