What people are saying
-
I've seen similiar things in the industry before, but not to the extent that this role playing plays out. I think it's an awesome concept.
Jason F, Executive Coach

Sitting between Chris Voss's - Never Split the Difference and corporate negotiating training, NEGOTIATE is the perfect way to apply learnings and theory in a fun, practical way. 80% of what we learn is lost, without frequent training, and NEGOTIATE is a fun way to keep in sync and learn the practical elements of negotiating
Theren M, Startup Founder
-
I've seen my fair share of high-stakes negotiations. The game's emphasis on forming alliances while maintaining a level of secrecy about one's own goals closely mirrors the dynamics of real-world negotiations.
