Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to analyze the process of experiential education developed with the implementation of Negotiation Models in real scenarios at Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana (Colombia) and determine the main aspects that could be considered by the delegations participating in the selection process, preparation, development and simulation in this type of models. To achieve this objective, the methodology developed was based on the analysis of 102 surveys made to delegates from 42 universities from 12 countries that have participated in negotiating models in the period 2014-2018. The results suggest that the respondents consider the main benefit from their participation in the models was the experience and knowledge gained in the management of global affairs; at the same time, respondents considered the main skill that you must have as a delegate to participate in these models, is the ability of being able to work under pressure; in the same way, they believe that the knowledge acquired as a result of their participation in these models is related to topics about cross-cultural negotiation; finally, it is determined that the main adversity that delegates have faced during the models, is the interaction with other participants due to ideological differences, cultural and idiomatic expressions.
