Sharpen your negotiation skills to create more value

How can you create a common ground in a negotiation when everything sets you apart from your counterpart? Is it possible to build a win-win partnership and manage the pressure of achieving short-term results? How do you reach an agreement that satisfies everyone in a business environment that is complex, uncertain, and changing?

IMD’s Negotiating for Value Creation program helps you master value creation techniques using multiple frameworks and specific behavioral simulations. You will be exposed to sophisticated analytical and conceptual insights, drawing on the latest advances in the field of negotiation analysis. Regardless of how many years of negotiating experience you have, you will learn how to significantly improve your preparation for negotiations and manage the emotions that inevitably arise during the process.

You will gain hands-on experience during negotiation simulations in a supportive environment and apply what you learn to your own specific challenge.

Sharpen your negotiation skills

Gain awareness of how you negotiate, including your strengths, challenges, emotional reactions, bad habits, and biases, in order to approach future negotiations with enhanced finesse.

Manage complex and challenging negotiations

Draw on the wealth of research in the area of negotiation and practice applying strategies,
tactics, theory, and frameworks to different contexts.

Recognize cultural dimensions in negotiations

Be aware that culture and context are central to interactions in negotiation and understand how to adapt, bridge differences, and align.

Gain experience through simulations

Participate in negotiation simulations and benefit from the insightful feedback you receive.
Learn how to debrief your own negotiations, a skill that will enable you to continue to improve, way beyond the program.
