Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

There will be various topics we are going through beginning with finding a common language of the various terms in intercultural negotiating contexts with a focus on East Asian content but not solely. We will cover various content topics especially in multi party negotiations and diplomatic negotiations contexts but also business settings. There are plenty of tactics which can be applied in negotiation contexts as well as there various biases, approaches and frameworks in different settings which will be talked about.

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

-    Describe the central frameworks, tactics and approaches of various negotiation contexts

-    Recognize the special features of intercultural negotion contexts 

-    Critically analyze and evaluate negotiation processes

-    Consider and train successful negotiation strategies in multiparty negotiation contexts

-    Develop an own negotiation philosophy during the term and learn about their own negotiation behaviour

-    Summarize the complex system of negotiation processes and be aware of the possibilties you have as a negotiator in various contexts 

This course is a growing mixture of theory and practice parts and students do have the opportunity to take part in a real two day, analyze videos and being active on their part too besides that they are getting input from the lecturers side. Attendance is not mandatory but it is highly recommended to come in on a regular basis in order to get the best benefit out of the course.
