Descriptif

Course description: The Business Negotiation course is a proven, easily applicable and tailor-made method to enable you to perform to the best of your ability as a future negotiator. The course prepares students to become successful negotiators by using an effective negotiating strategy. The course identifies significant steps and appropriate hard and soft skills to be developed, which can lead to improved business performance. Students go through a relevant negotiation process to reach mutually acceptable deals, and get valuable insights into different cultural negotiating styles. They explore interests, predict conflicts and reach win-win situations. They practice in a constructive learning environment by means of a series of short lectures and through the use of live negotiating exercises. This method has been developed with the contribution of numerous experienced multinational negotiation teams, and is based on the best references. At the end of this course, students will have acquired relevant knowledge and will be able to perform to the best of their ability as negotiators. This training package of 6 modules has been successfully tested and implemented over a period of 3 years with 6 multinational teams.
