Business Negotiations

Use quick thinking, powerful arguments, and maybe even some subtle manipulation to become a successful, skilled negotiator from the classroom to the boardroom.

Negotiation can be a vital life skill, whether you’re doing it today with your parents or 20 years from now in your career. Learning its basic strategies is an essential component to being a good leader and manager, whether in the boardroom, classroom, or in student leadership positions. 

See what it takes to be a skillful negotiator by exploring the fundamentals of argumentation, developing strategies to effectively advocate for what you need, and even using psychological tricks that can subconsciously sway opinions. Learn what people want, prepare options, develop creative solutions, and identify logical fallacies through discussions, simulations, scenarios, and role plays. Finally, navigate the challenges of a multiparty negotiation and learn important collaboration and advocacy skills that will help you master negotiations from the personal to professional.
