LIFE IS NEGOTIATION
We consult, facilitate and train negotiation success
The Vienna School of Negotiation was founded by Sonja Rauschütz as a European meeting point for professional negotiators interested in expanding their practice and that of their teams while in dialogue with distinguished international negotiation experts. The idea was born in the late nineties of the last century at the Program On Negotiation, where Sonja Rauschütz, then faculty member of Harvard Law School, worked as an associate with the renowned Prof. Roger Fisher. (“Getting to Yes” or "Das Harvard Konzept").
Today, the Vienna School of Negotiation works with internationally renowned partners and is a European movement to professionalize negotiations by supporting chief negotiators, negotiation support units and organisations committed to organisational and individual negotiation excellency. The focus lies equally on great results, sustainable working relations and efficient processes. We often work with highly experienced negotiation practitioners and take pride in our Young Negotiator Initiative where we help complement existing skills, sharpen the tools for great results and deal with different people constructively. Our cutting edge SaaS based negotiation platform offers systemic support for individuals, teams and organisations to integrate negotiation knowledge into real life practice.
Life is negotiation. It's time to take control of the process and of the outcomes.

The Harvard concept is one of the few seminars where I always have the materials at hand. The seminar and Sonja Rauschütz impressed me very much.
