Susskind and Shapiro Present at the CPR 2007 Annual Conference

By — on / News

Lawrence Susskind and Daniel Shapiro were presenters at the CPR (International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution) 2007 Annual Meeting.

Professor Susskind guided the group of 180 attendees, split into teams of six, through a multiparty negotiation based on the redevelopment of the World Trade Center site. The reaction? Reported one participant: “I have been coming to CPR meetings for years and this was one of the best programs ever.” Said another: “Superb problem and exercise. It was great.”

Professor Shapiro presented a lecture/demonstration based on his CPR Award-winning book, Beyond Reason: Using Emotions as You Negotiate, which was described by participants as “brillant.”

The International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution Institute (CPR) is a membership-based nonprofit organization that promotes excellence and innovation in public and private dispute resolution, serving as a primary multinational resource for avoidance, management, and resolution of business-related disputes.
