Why this course matters

People are tired of the grind of “us vs them.” It’s showing up everywhere: between unions and employers, government and services, even inside everyday teams.

This programme takes that reality head-on. It’s built on the Principled Negotiation model from Harvard - a framework that helps people move from positions (“what I want”) to interests (“why I want it”).

That’s how trust, clarity, and cooperation start to rebuild.

What you’ll get

• A clear framework for negotiating in workplaces, teams, and community settings.
• Tools to stay assertive without being aggressive, and empathetic without being walked over.
• Skills for managing hard conversations around difference, change, and limited resources.
• An OCN Level 2 qualification.
• Three days of in-person, hands-on learning full of practice and reflection.

Who it’s for

• HR professionals tired of repeated disputes and high-cost mediation.
• Line managers who want a structure for tricky conversations that don’t spiral.
• Leaders and executives juggling competing interests without clear authority.
• Conflict resolution practitioners who want accredited, practical tools that work.
• Anyone who negotiates daily from contracts to community relationships.

Why it matters now

Negotiation is a core skill for effective leadership.
It enables people to build alignment, make clear decisions, and move work forward.

In workplaces where politics, identity, and ethics often overlap, principled negotiation provides a clear framework for honest and fair dialogue. It helps people address conflict directly, find shared understanding, and reach agreements that last.
