This course is designed to help participants explore the concepts and develop skills of negotiation and mediation central to the resolution of situation-specific intercultural conflict. We will explore how culture interacts with other structural and social features to influence expectations about negotiation practices and outcomes. Perspectives on negotiation “styles” in selected cultures will offer useful contrasts to U.S.-centered models. The practical implications for negotiating across cultures will be illustrated using simulated cases. Enrollment limited to 30. (Thursday 4:00-6:30 p.m.)
