Cross Cultural Negotiation

 
If your organization negotiates with counterparts from different cultures, and you want to avoid opportunities being lost as a result of cultural disparities and misunderstandings, then this cross cultural negotiation workshop is for you.

In our Cross Cultural Negotiation workshop, participants learn the same powerful negotiation framework taught in our Maximizing Value through Collaborative Negotiation workshop. However, in addition to learning how a collaborative-negotiation model can fuel better agreements and stronger relationships, they explore how cultural factors can impact a negotiation, and the steps they can take to ensure that differences in beliefs, behaviors, values, and norms do not negatively impact their negotiations.

In addition to offering general advice for bridging cultural differences when negotiating, we customize workshops to offer prescriptive advice for specific regions in which your participants do business.

Theories come alive as your participants practice applying concepts through fun, interactive exercises and case-studies, including customized role-play simulations as well as analyses of their own challenging situations.

Participants walk away prepared to make the most of their cross cultural negotiation opportunities.

Learning Objectives:

• Manage cross-cultural negotiation more effectively
• Improve one’s position in the cross cultural negotiation
• Achieve better agreement terms
• Protect, if not enhance, relationships with negotiation counterparts from other cultures
• Have a greater awareness of when cultural factors might be at play
• Know how to address cultural disparities and keep the negotiation on track
• Better prepare for a cross-cultural negotiation

• Addressing relational factors and substantive objectives separately and concurrently
• Using relational factors to influence negotiation results
• Understanding culture and how it impacts perception, communication, and decision-making in negotiation

The Practitioner Advantage

 

Each member of the Consensus team has more than fifteen years of field experience, working on behalf of clients as their negotiators and mediators. As practitioners, we routinely test and apply cutting edge strategies and theories as part of our various client situations, ranging from hostage situations to billion-dollar business transactions to political standoffs.

Accordingly, we are highly informed about the strengths inherent to different approaches and frameworks, and how various theoretical concepts would or would not apply to your contexts. Our practitioner experience translates into more concrete advice based on firsthand experience, a true understanding of how theories play out in the real world (and when popular ideas would fall short), and an ability to relate to professionals at all levels of seniority – including members of your C-suite.
