  • About The Negotiation Institute
    The Negotiation Institute, formed in 1966 by Gerard I. Nierenberg, is the pioneer organization devoted to the study of negotiation and related fields. The Institute offers state of the art training to governments, executives, business and educational organizations around the world. To date over 1,000,000 people have attended the sessions.

    The Founder
    Nierenberg Negotiation Training Seminars Institute Gerard I. Nierenberg, a successful lawyer, was the first to realize the role negotiation plays in resolving disputes in personal, business and international relations. He discovered that the philosophies of the negotiators determine the direction a negotiation takes. His experience confirmed that an "Everybody Wins ® " philosophy, which assures that all parties benefit from a negotiation, creates longer-lasting and more successful outcomes than the adversarial "winner takes all" approach. All the parties must take responsibility for steering the negotiation to a successful conclusion for all: with this insight, he created a new path to successful negotiating.

    His 20 best-selling books on negotiation and related subjects have been translated into 30 languages. They amplify his ideas which have revolutionized the way the world looks at negotiation. Learn more about Gerard Nierenberg and the Negotiation Institute. Let the Negotiation Institute show you how to achieve an "Everybody Wins" solution in all your future negotiations.


    "A jack of all negotiating trades - his client list reads like a list of Fortune 500 companies - Nierenberg has built a successful business teaching... the techniques of negotiating to major corporations, trade groups, and other organizations."
    - Associated Press
