About the Webinar:

From the NFL to state governments, negotiation is in the news these days.  The issues are vastly different, but these two negotiations have one thing in common: the parties view each other with enmity.  In this webinar, Robert Mnookin will share his secrets on how to negotiate with disagreeable people, even those you dislike and cannot trust.

Professor Mnookin will address questions of moral quandaries … the role of intuition … and what to do when emotions run high.  What’s the best way to calculate cost vs. benefit?  How do you gather advice? Can you avoid psychological traps? Should intuition play a role?  You’ll walk away with practical techniques and strategies for reaching agreements with disagreeable people – from an unscrupulous colleague to a rogue government to a divorcing spouse.

Since this is a webinar, you and your entire staff can attend in the comfort of your office or conference room! You may include as many people as you wish while listening on a single phone line.

Event only: $197  (unlimited number of participants)
