  • 6.9260 Multi-Stakeholder Negotiation for Technical Experts
  • 2024 Spring, taught by Samuel "Mooly" Dinnar
  • MIT Daniel J. Riccio Gradaute Engineering Leadership Program
  • Technical experts don’t just negotiate one-on-one. Engineering team members and leaders are required to deal with their own team, other stakeholders within their organizations and many external parties. This is true of academic lab settings, and also of commercial technology development environments and government projects. When the number of stakeholder increases, so do the complexities associated with communications, relationships, cultural differences and power dynamics. Effective professionals need to be able to map a multi-party situation and decide when and how to negotiate, facilitate, build winning coalitions, resolve conflicts and strive for consensus.
