1. COURSE DESCRIPTION
Conflict and Negotiation are two common and integrated forms of business interaction. This course aims at providing a systematic introduction of concepts, theories and practices, with a focus on equipping students with toolkits of handling conflict and negotiation.
Negotiation equips participants with a range of strategies and practices to improve the quality of their negotiating skills through an examination of the key research in the field and by offering the opportunity to practice, reflect and receive feedback on their performance in a range of activities, cases and simulations.
Conflict Resolution enables participants to learn and apply techniques of conflict management and resolution and be able to transfer the skills learnt to their organization.
