This intensive program provides an interactive experience in which participants engage in realistic negotiation scenarios. You’ll learn how to effectively develop a negotiation planning document, align a negotiating team and remain strategically agile in increasingly complex and challenging negotiation situations.
In this action-based 8-week online program, you will engage in real-life negotiation simulations and receive meaningful, personalized feedback. Through this highly interactive and personalized approach, Kellogg’s premier faculty will equip you to navigate the complex landscape of deal-making in a global and digital environment. Most participants can expect to dedicate 3-4 hours per week to their learning experience.
Participants will master proven strategies through a rigorous set of tactical challenges and will learn to negotiate one-on-one and team-on-team, bridge cultural divides, understand how to approach from positions of high and low power, and how to win when up against tight deadlines and outside pressure. By the end of this program, you will have mastered high-performance negotiation skills that you can use in nearly any negotiation situation, and in any medium.
