Are you conflict-averse? Or do you like arguing a little too much? Do you sometimes hear "it's not what you said, it's the way you said it"? Or do you know enough to tell an interaction is going badly, but not enough to fix it? How can we be better leaders in our personal and academic lives? How do we balance increasing the total payoff with claiming a fair share of that increase? We explore this problem together using research and exercises from negotiation theory/psychology.
