Rethinking negotiation

03.02.2026 The Plectrum, Gent 19:30 Free

Successful collaborations and strong leadership start with thoughtful negotiation. Yet in a complex world, we often fall back on power struggles and short-term thinking.

At this Upgrade Academy evening, Prof. Dr. Katia Tieleman and Laurence Dewaele will explore how negotiation can evolve from confrontation to dialogue and value creation. Drawing from their book Negotiation Intelligence, they share practical insights and tools to reach solutions where all parties come out stronger.

The evening brings together a community of leaders and professionals ready to rethink the way they negotiate at work, in partnerships, and beyond.
