Hostage negotiation for Private Security Contractors

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

This course is designed to meet the hostage negotiation standards for security contractors (PSC)

This course will help you be a better negotiator. Unlike many negotiation courses, we develop a framework for analysing and shaping negotiations. This framework will allow you to make principled arguments that persuade others. It will allow you to see beneath the surface of apparent conflicts to uncover the underlying interests. You will leave the course better able to predict, interpret, and shape the behaviour of those you face in competitive situations.

Course Information

Introduction to Hostage Negotiation:

In this course, you will have several opportunities to negotiate with other students using case studies based on common situations in business and in life. You can get feedback on your performance and compare what you did to how others approached the same scenario. The cases also provide a setting to discuss a wide-ranging set of topics including preparing for a negotiation, making ultimatums, avoiding regret, expanding the pie, and dealing with someone who has a very different perspective on the world.
