Negotiation Programme

Effective negotiation skills are crucial to success in any industry or organisation. Great negotiators achieve results and enhance relationships by planning and tailoring their approach to the specific context rather than acting on impulse.

The highly interactive Negotiation Programme from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) enables you to reach your potential as a negotiator and enhance your business impact. Practise real-world scenarios with professionals from the UK and further afield in live online negotiations, where you’ll apply proven negotiation techniques in a digital environment. Over the course of six weeks, you’ll analyse different approaches to negotiating based on the communication channel, and investigate the impact of culture, power, and influence in negotiation. Finally, using expert insight and peer feedback, you’ll create a development plan to identify your personal negotiation style and provide an active record of your improvement.

Live online negotiation sessions will be between one-and-a-half to two hours long. You’ll be able to indicate your time-slot preference for these sessions based on your time zone and schedule.
