Description:

Description:

This course will take students on an experiential journey of discovery into the theories and practices that will help them to become a better negotiator, to manage conflict more effectively, and to keep their emotions in check, even when the stakes are high. This course is like a power-up for all of the skills students learn in other courses. For instance, analytical prowess is great for determining an optimal solution, but you need strong negotiation skills to see solutions accepted and implemented. After all, a brilliant analysis is pointless if someone can’t get people on board with what you propose. This course is designed around hands-on learning experiences that will help students develop both the analytical frameworks and the practical abilities necessary for effective and actionable negotiations.
