This course introduces students to the theory and practice of business negotiation in the U.S. and other countries through readings, simulations, videos, and group projects\/presentations.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;The course focuses o<b>n the development of the skills necessary to be successful as negotiator\/advocates <\/b>in multiple domestic and international business settings, including deal making, conciliation, and internal corporate and employment dispute resolution. Students will study a variety of business situations where negotiating skills are important and will develop a set of bargaining tools that will enable them to convert conceptual knowledge into effective action. Students will also develop a framework to assess negotiating situations across cultures and develop an awareness of the challenges of global business negotiations, including communication, cultural differences, and gain an appreciation for the complexities of cross-cultural negotiations.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>These tools consist of preparation and at-the-table guidelines that, when practiced regularly, develop into fluid negotiation skills. Because practice is essential for business negotiation skills to develop, practice opportunities are offered continually throughout the course. Indeed, at least one practice opportunity will be provided in almost every class, in the form of a negotiation or dispute resolution case that simulates a real-world business situation.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b style=\"background-color: transparent; color: var(--color-1); font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit;\">Simulations<\/b><span style=\"background-color: transparent; color: var(--color-1); font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit;\">:<br \/>\nWe will use a variety of case studies and simulations to practice the negotiation skills that we are studying.

Does your writing reflect a substantive understanding of the course material and is it appropriately integrated into your analysis, or are you merely summarizing the reading material without applying it to the subject?&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><b>3. Critical Thinking and Analysis<\/b>. Are you really analyzing points or superficially glossing over them, i.e., are you simply providing a narrative of what happened in the negotiations, or are you discussing the significance and impact of strategic decisions, various styles and \u201ctable tactics\u201d, and other observations made during the negotiations?&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><b>4. Creative Thought.<\/b> Does your analysis show creative thought about the problem\/issue?<\/div>\n<div><b>&nbsp;5. Detailed Observations. D<\/b>oes your writing provide a detailed description of your observations at the negotiation table and the insight or information those observations provided to you as a negotiator?&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><b>6.
