Negotiation Workshop at Allen&Overy

Negotiation Workshop at Allen&Overy

Our members recently had an eye-opening negotiation training given by Dirk Meeus, Managing Partner of Allen & Overy Belgium and Co-Head of the Global Corporate practice, followed by a walking dinner.

Fahad, a law student at Saint- Louis and member of MSB, shares his experience:
“The workshop was organized by lawyers from the M&A department. We started with a presentation on negotiation theory, where we tackled the negotiation principles to obtain a win-win deal. Afterwards, we were given a case study. Each team had to negotiate on behalf of their client to obtain the best possible deal.
I took home with me some precious lessons from this workshop, such as the satisfaction to have a deal after a long discussion, the importance of building personal relations with the other side and the difficulty of not to fall in the trap of positional bargaining.”

Thank you to Dirk Meeus and the laywers of the M&A department for this interesting workshop and Allen&Overy for your support over the years!
