Week 1: Embrace the Conflict

The Psychology of the Right Mindset

Thursday, 13 August 2026 | 17:00-18:00 CEST

With Psychologist Lina Malyschkin

In this session, Psychologist Lina Malyschkin will explore how mindset influences negotiation behavior. Your mindset determines your preparation, your performance under pressure, and ultimately your results. You will learn why we at the Schranner Negotiation Institute always Embrace the Conflict.

You will discover:

  • An introduction to the Schranner Concept® for handling difficult negotiations and counterparts
  • How your expectations influence the course of a negotiation
  • The Play-to-Win mindset
  • Tools to help you find out what kind of negotiator you are and how to improve

Week 2: The AI Negotiator

The Risks and Opportunities

Thursday, 20 August 2026 | 18:00-19:00 CEST

With Institute COO Fabio Falkenstein & AI Negotiation Expert Phillip Trummer

What does AI in negotiation actually mean? Does it mean letting AI negotiate for you? Or does it mean becoming a better negotiator because of AI? AI can analyze information, simulate difficult counterparts, and provide immediate feedback. But can it build trust? Read the room? Recognize what remains unsaid? Or take responsibility when the stakes are high?

Schranner AI Expert, Phillip Trummer, and Institute COO, Fabio Falkenstein, will examine where AI is already changing negotiation, and where human judgement remains irreplaceable.

 

You will discover:

  • The limits of AI in complex human interactions
  • The human factor in negotiations
  • Which negotiation capabilities will become more important
  • How simulations can improve negotiation preparation

Week 3: The End of Win-Win

The Shift from Values-based to Interest-Based Negotiations

Tuesday, 25 August 2026 | 17:00-18:00 CEST

With Institute CEO Matthias Schranner

“Win-Win” has become one of the most repeated ideas in negotiation. It builds on the idea of cooperation and shared values.

In today’s world we see a decrease in shared values, which also challenges the assumption of the possibility of Win-Win. What happens when interests fundamentally conflict? When the other side refuses to cooperate? When pressure increases and there is no solution that makes everyone equally satisfied?

It’s not about right or wrong, it’s about finding an agreement.

You will discover:

  • The risks of “Win-Win” thinking in difficult negotiations
  • How to distinguish cooperation from strategic compromise
  • What to do when the other side is unwilling to cooperate
  • How to lead negotiations through deadlock
