Negotiation over complex environmental issues is often required in the day-to-day work of attorneys, planners, engineers and applied scientists, natural resource managers, real estate professionals and experts in hazardous waste cleanup. Yet for many of these professionals, negotiation techniques and their practical application were not part of their earlier training. CONCUR's professional development courses are specifically designed to equip professionals with these skills. Our training and real-world experience make us a premier provider of environmental training services.

In Course One, we show you how a process of face-to-face negotiation can augment traditional policy making with creative agreements that are better informed and more stable. During the training, participants learn the elements of mutual gains bargaining, apply them in a series of simulated disputes, and reflect on the application of these tools to everyday work situations.
The Agenda for Day One includes:
Current terminology
Detailed overview of the principled negotiation process
Current dispute resolution theories and their practical application
Negotiation styles and techniques
Hands-on simulations focused on environmental issues
Ethical responsibilities of negotiators
The Agenda for Day Two includes:
"How-to" guide for agreement-focused negotiation
Tools needed to be an effective negotiator
CONCURs stepwise model of mediated negotiation
Case studies, with topics ranging from land use planning and water resources management to statewide environmental planning
Ways to improve the negotiation process with mutual gains bargaining, joint fact-finding, and mediator or facilitator involvement
