Introduction to Negotiation: A Strategic Playbook for Becoming a Principled and Persuasive Negotiator – Certificate
Yale School of Management, Yale University – Introduction to Negotiation
About this course
This course will help you learn to negotiate better. Unlike many negotiation courses, we develop a framework to analyze and shape negotiations. This structure will allow you to present principled arguments that will convince others. This will allow you to see hidden conflicts to reveal your interests. You will leave the course and you will be able to better predict, interpret, and shape the behavior of those you face in competitive situations.
In this course, you will have several opportunities to negotiate with other students using case studies based on common situations in business and life. You can get feedback on your work and compare what you have done with how others have approached the same scenario. The cases also provide an opportunity to discuss a wide range of topics, including preparing for negotiations, issuing ultimatums, avoiding regrets, raising the cake, and speaking to someone with a completely different world view. Additional topics include bargaining when out of power, email bargaining, and the role of gender differences in bargaining. At the end of the course, we will hear the opinions of three negotiation experts: Linda Babcock, Herb Cohen, and John McCall McBain. Enjoy.
