The program is specially designed to provide the necessary tools to face team negotiations and negotiations with teams. It offers a perspective that prepares the participant to handle situations where negotiation is required and where collective participation is needed, as well as the development of positions and decisions in a plural manner, either within or between organizations.

Some negotiations are so simple that we can handle them alone, but this type of negotiation is becoming less common in the business world. Today, in order to succeed in a negotiation, we usually have to be able to work effectively as part of a negotiation team.

The focus is to prepare those who will lead these negotiations at the front of a team to achieve the most efficient results possible, while also learning to recognize and assign the necessary roles within a team when facing a negotiation, how to assess its evolution, and how to maintain focus and direction for a group of people with different characteristics, skills, and talents.

It will also provide the opportunity to analyze the functioning, structure, strategy, and tactical details of the teams negotiating with us.

Through five classes, the program covers a series of practical issues related to team negotiation. To begin, it is not always clear whether a negotiation team should be formed. Based on the foundations established by Elizabeth Mannix, Professor at Cornell University, it is taught that it may be preferable to negotiate in a team in the following situations:

  • Complex negotiations that require diverse knowledge.
  • Negotiations with high potential for creativity and value creation.
  • Negotiations with multiple participants interested in the outcome.
  • International contexts where negotiation teams are the norm.
  • Negotiations where there is enough time to coordinate a team approach.

Comparadas con las negociaciones individuales, las negociaciones en equipo son mejores en cuanto a estrategias efectivas de negociación como el desarrollo de intercambios, de acuerdo con Leigh Thompson, profesora de la Universidad Northwestern y sus colegas investigadoras Erika Peterson y Susan Brodt. Los equipos suelen ser mejores que los negociadores individuales a la hora de intercambiar información con la contraparte y de emitir juicios precisos, además de que suelen lograr resultados mejores. Los equipos también suelen sentirse más poderosos, menos competitivos y presionados que los negociadores individuales, según las investigaciones de la Universidad de Cornell.

La tendencia de los equipos a desempeñarse mejor que los negociadores individuales se ha atribuido a varios factores como las metas económicas altas que los equipos se imponen; su elevado sentido de la competencia, y la tendencia de sus miembros a cuestionar las posturas de los otros miembros. También podría ser importante que las personas que participan en un equipo estén atentas a la conducta de los demás miembros, mientras que los individuos negocian sin que otros miembros de sus empresas los observen. La supervisión suele amplificar las normas sociales – o expectativas conductuales – que destacan en una negociación.

Los equipos de negociación deben estar atentos a ciertas tendencias. Por ejemplo: un equipo de negociación podría ser particularmente susceptible a la “mentalidad de grupo”, es decir, la tendencia de los grupos de personas a apegarse al mismo punto de vista y a pasar por alto información que contradice dicha postura. La negociación efectiva también puede toparse con el obstáculo de las coaliciones o las facciones destructivas.

Por ello deberías exhortar a los miembros de tu equipo de negociación a que compartan sus posturas, aunque sean contradictorias e incluso designar un “abogado del diablo”. Se debe, además, buscar un consenso respecto a las decisiones importantes en vez de simplemente someterlo a votación.

Si parece que esa negociación que se avecina exige un enfoque de equipo, se debe identificar las funciones pertinentes y reclutar a las personas adecuadas para ello. A través de lo que se trabajara en el curso, se buscara clarificar este punto para una estructuración eficiente de los equipos y de la definición de los roles.
