1.5 CPE In order to negotiate successfully, you need to know what both sides of the negotiation value and what they do not value as highly. While sometimes people will not be able to agree, understanding your goals and the goals of the other side early in the process will help you not waste time in fruitless negotiation and will propel both sides to work earnestly to reach an agreement.
This course is a primer in not only how to negotiate, but when to negotiate, where to negotiate, how to set the terms and calendar for negotiation, and most importantly, how to prepare for negotiation. Everyone negotiates every day and when you become better at it, you can help others become better at negotiation, which benefits every one.
This course has practical impacts in both your professional and personal life and helps take some of the strain, stress, and effort out of negotiation. And, if you currently dislike any form of negotiation, this course shows you ways to make it more enjoyable and less conflict bound.
Learning Objectives
- Explore how improved negotiation makes life better for all involved.
- Identify what your side values most highly and what the other side values most highly as a key strategy in pursuing successful negotiations.
- Discover the true purpose of negotiation.
- Recognize that preparation is the most important factor in successful negotiation.
- Discover how to calculate the cost of not agreeing to your side and to the other side in order to gain leverage in negotiation.

I wish I had taken this course earlier in my career. I now know what I don’t know. Besides a very informative and bookmark type course, the instructor also recommends some good negotiation subject related books, web sites and associations. I plan on revisiting this course and bookmarking it for future reference. Strong presentation too.

Provides a basic outline of negotiation tips. Good material for someone new to negotiation. The slide presentation could use some work. Looking at listening to the instructor read bullet point after bullet point on 30+ slides is not the most effective way to present material.

The substance of this course is valuable, but there are too many gray either/or questions that come up in the final exam. Several of the answers were just one shade off of other choices and I found myself frustrated with deciphering the meanings of questions.

There was some structure in this presentation and Herb Rubinstein is likeable, but at times, it had a rushed flow which made grasping the concepts difficult. At times, the concepts seemed vague because of switching illustrations to differing concepts.

This course was very helpful. It wasn't what I expected, it allowed me to deeply see what it is to negotiate. I thought it was going to give me examples on how to negotiate with difficult customers but this was interesting on a psychological level.

Great discussion of negotiation. This concepts in this course can take some of the tension out of the negotiation process and help people make good deals that they can be happy with, without alienating the counterparty.

It really was not helpful in learning how to better negotiate. It was too superficial and general that it really did not expand on how to better approach negotiations. Maybe the course is too short?

The instructor provided great tips on negotiation strategies. I especially liked the idea of increasing the size of the pie and then dividing it. If all are happy, negotiation is successful.

Interesting course - not sure I agree with the takeaway since it took me more than one try to pass the exam. It would be helpful to have more definitive notes.
