Synopsis: Managerial, executive, and entrepreneurial success requires the ability to negotiate. The essential reading and recommended module plan will help students to become more effective negotiators by: 1) mastering a negotiation framework that will help them analyze, prepare for, and execute negotiations more systematically-and hence, more effectively-in a wide variety of contexts; 2) building a negotiation toolkit that consists of practical strategies for creating and capturing value in negotiation; and 3) learning how to create a negotiation environment that helps diagnose individual needs, and allows negotiators to identify techniques for mitigating weaknesses and leveraging their strengths. The supplemental reading addresses two additional topics: cross-cultural negotiations and gender issues in negotiation.
