European Negotiations III - Managing Negotiations with the European Parliament under Lisbon
18-19/Nov/2010 • Maastricht • Fee: € 975 • Special discount available
Target groups
Future chairpersons and team members of a forthcoming EU Presidency, case handlers based in capitals, representatives in Council Preparatory bodies, attaché(e) s and counsellors from Permanent Representations, EU institutions officials.
Objective
The programme is the 3rd module of the series of training events dedicated to European negotiations. It focuses distinctively on the negotiations with the European Parliament because the institution is often portrayed by national negotiators and case handlers as a counterpart difficult to approach, unpredictable and complex to ‘read’ within the EU decision making processes. The module aims at providing the European negotiator with the necessary strategic, logistic, procedural and technical tools as well as knowledge to survive in the corridors of codecision. The overall purpose is to help European negotiators plan and successfully operate both the formal and informal negotiations to between the Council and the European Parliament on matters and dossiers subject to codecision.
Training Method
The programme follows a multilayered interactive approach based on a strategic workshop, a simulation exercise, debriefing sessions and an interactive forum of negotiation learning points. A genuine dossier will be used throughout the sessions in order to proceed on professional and very concrete grounds. This approach should allow to capture the reality of the environment to be faced by the negotiator. The method is also multidisciplinary by convening practitioners, governance experts and negotiation specialists to give multifaceted advice to the European negotiators on how to best manage the life of their dossier while ‘dealing with the European Parliament’.
The Programme on European Negotiations (PEN) is an initiative aiming to streamline and unite EIPA’s actions of learning, development, coaching and research on the negotiation processes involving national and European officials within the EU governance system. The PEN aims to bring negotiation theory to EU decision-making processes, rationality and pragmatism to intuitive negotiation skills, shared best practices to individual negotiation experiences, and research to European negotiations as a whole. Open training activities of PEN consist of four complementary seminars to enhance EU negotiation skills: Representation and Negotiation in the Council of the EU (I); Interpersonal and Intercultural Dimensions of European negotiations (II); Managing EU Negotiations under Codecision (III); and the Presidency Challenges (IV).
