Institute for Negotiation Innovation
The INI is a not-for-profit initiative designed to:
- Bridge the gap between negotiation research and practice with a feedback loop;
- Become a shared platform for international thought leadership in negotiation; and
- Build capacity to promote negotiation competence and excellence standards worldwide.
The INI is unique as it will:
- Generate field-based research to inform negotiation theory and practice;
- Be a non-profit, non-membership, inclusive platform predominantly financed by grants;
- Not provide consulting or training services;
- Complement and partner, not compete, with other negotiation stakeholders;
- Provide open-access information of practical value to all;
- Connect scholars, skills trainers and researchers with practitioners; and
- Be multi-lingual, trans-cultural and operate predominantly online.
