Why we collaborate according to the cognitive sciences
This slot is a crash course in the neurochemical psychological actions and reactions in mind and body during negotiations and gives you an understanding of which buttons to push and not to push to achieve optimum results:
° The neural human connectedness ° Prosocial vs. asocial behaviour: the person – substance divide ° The universality of emotions: what it is, why we have them, why they influence or even determine the outcome of negotiations ° The importance of building rapport with others during negotiations ° The basis of collaboration: trust, fairness and kindness

11.00 – 13.00 |

How to handle “difficult” people during negotiations (i.e. legal advisors) ° Analyse and address drivers behind difficult behaviour ° Express concern – do not react emotionally or judge, re-negotiate the terms of negotiations, or better yet kindly announce your company approach to negotiations prior to negotiations
