Enhance Your Negotiation Skills at the Upcoming Workshop in Tokyo

In an age where negotiation skills can make or break a deal, the "Essential Negotiation Strategy Workshop" offers a rare opportunity for individuals looking to refine their negotiation tactics and strategies. Scheduled for September 26-27, 2026, in Tokyo, this workshop is based on advanced negotiation theories and exercises commonly used in the Executive Education programs at premier institutions like Stanford University and Kellogg School of Management.

Workshop Overview

The workshop is organized by Transformative Learning Lab, co-founded by Minoru Oki, and facilitated by Tetsushi Okumura, a leading figure in negotiation research and a former professor at Tokyo University of Science. This intensive 1.5-day program is designed to be accessible to individual participants, shifting from its traditional setting of corporate training where only a few had access.

Unique Features of the Workshop

• - First-Hand Experience: Participants will delve into the core elements of executive programs at renown business schools while utilizing Japanese translations of their educational materials.
• - Practical Exercises: Engage in three meticulously crafted negotiation exercises that emphasize real-world applications, allowing participants to experience negotiations as both buyers and sellers without prior knowledge of each other's information.
• - Skill Development: After each negotiation session, participants will collaboratively share their outcomes, supported by academic insights and empirical research to enhance their negotiation skills.
• - Wide Applicability: The training is not restricted to sales and purchasing departments; it is relevant to any profession requiring inter-departmental coordination and negotiation.

Curriculum and Methodology

The workshop includes a series of practical sessions:
1. Introduction & Individual Negotiation (3 hours)
2. Buyer/Seller Negotiation (3.5 - 4 hours)
3. Interdepartmental Coordination (4 - 4.5 hours)
Each day will also provide opportunities for networking among participants, fostering connections and shared learning experiences.

Credible Facilitation

The workshop is led by Dr. Tetsushi Okumura, renowned for his extensive research in negotiation and conflict resolution. Having published numerous articles in prestigious journals, including the Academy of Management Journal and Negotiation Journal, he brings over 30 years of training experience in both public and business sectors. His collaboration with leading academics from institutions like the Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management enriches the learning experience.
