Goals
During the course, in which the students will be confronted with intercultural negotiating simulations, they will constantly keep track of their personal developments. After having finished the course, they will be capable of evaluating the learned material, and they will be able to write a report about their personal improvements. They will be better capable of preparing themselves for possible future negotiations, and they will have advantage of the background knowledge which they will then have. They will also be more sensitive for signals and the many different thinking patterns related to the diverse cultures, which form the context for today's negotiations.
