نعم مناسبة ، الدورة تتحدث عن اهمية التفاوض ضمن تقنيات واساليب تفاوضية معينة يتم التركيز على مصلحة الطرفين اثناء التفاوض للوصول الى اتفاق مرضي مع التركيز على الجانب العاطفي في بعض الاحيان بحسب ما يراه المفاوض من الطرف الاخر

When I started the course, I realized negotiation is not just about business deals or contracts. It’s something we do every day—whether at work, at home, or even with friends. The course gave me a structured way to think about it, instead of just relying on instinct.

By Anonymized User on 11/25/2025

It is a great course, but I was expecting some practical role-playing scenarios of negotiations as part of this course, which could help me to understand the situation and taught us how to analyze the situation and apply different methods.

By Julia Natalia Nowicki on 11/17/2025

Siendo los sesgos un punto tan importante, me hubiera gustado una explicación más exacta con tres o cuatro sesgos más comunes que afecten negociaciones.
