Module 01 of 04 Foundation — No prerequisites

Negotiation
2.0

Stop training for a world that no longer exists.

Most negotiation training is built on 20th century assumptions. Negotiation 2.0 resets how your team thinks and acts — equipping them with the mechanics, tools, and mindset required to perform consistently in today’s complex, data-rich, multi-stakeholder environments.

  • 1-Day Workshop
  • 8–16 Participants
  • All Seniority Levels
  • No Prerequisites
  • AI-Supported Preparation

Today's reality

  • Surging complexity & margin pressure
  • Negotiations across multiple stakeholders & channels
  • Accelerating AI adoption & data availability
  • Generational shifts in authority & decision-making
  • Legacy training delivering outdated results

What most negotiation training
gets wrong

Most approaches your team has encountered are rooted in 20th century assumptions — stable environments, linear processes, face-to-face dominance, and limited data. The result is inconsistency when it matters most.

  • Techniques accumulated without a clear structure for when and how to use them
  • Preparation treated as optional rather than the primary source of control
  • Training designed for single-interaction, face-to-face settings that no longer dominate
  • No shared language across the commercial team — every negotiator improvises alone
  • Zero integration of AI, data, and asynchronous channel dynamics
  • Tactics-first thinking that collapses under real commercial complexity

Very good nego training. I have learned a lot; tactics, how to behave, to not be in a competitive mindset.

What participants gain

Three capability shifts that matter

01

A shared negotiation foundation

  • A clear, modern understanding of how negotiations are won and lost
  • Dispelling the myths that quietly undermine commercial results
  • A common language that improves team coordination and decision quality
  • Confidence in what negotiation actually is — and what it is not
02

Preparation that drives control

  • A systematic, repeatable preparation discipline
  • Objective setting: WAP, ZOPA, and opening position design
  • Using AI as a core preparation and scenario-planning tool
  • Decision-making frameworks that hold under commercial pressure
03

Negotiation mechanics that scale

  • Negotiation trajectory design and structured move planning
  • Multi-interaction and multi-stakeholder negotiation architecture
  • Behavioral fundamentals for live, hybrid, and async environments
  • A repeatable approach that scales across deals, teams, and contexts

Core learning areas

Six domains. One day.

Value-Based Negotiation

Distributive and value-creative realities — when to compete, when to expand, and how to recognise which game you are actually playing.

Opening Positions & Objective Setting

Walk Away Points, Zone of Possible Agreement, and the architecture of a credible, ambitious opening position that sets the anchor.

Negotiation Trajectory & Move Planning

How negotiations actually progress over time. Designing trajectories in advance rather than reacting — so every concession is intentional.

Preparation Discipline & AI Integration

A structured approach to preparation — including using AI tools to model scenarios, stress-test positions, and surface counterpart logic.

Discomfort, Rejection & Silence

Information management, the deliberate use of silence, handling rejection without capitulating, and behavioral fundamentals under pressure.

Multi-Media & Fragmented Interactions

Applying negotiation principles across live, hybrid, email, and async digital sequences — where most modern commercial negotiations unfold.
