📚 Lecture: “Game Theory for Everyday Negotiations”

🎤 Speaker: Economist, Dr. Dhruv Khurana PhD

Ready to get more of what you want without being a jerk or a doormat? Join us for an insightful session where Dr. Dhruv Khurana turns life’s daily standoffs—rent bumps, salary talks, splitting the check, and more—into solvable games using game theory.

In this interactive lecture, you’ll learn to anchor effectively, set a real BATNA, send signals that resonate, and identify bluffs before they cost you. With no equations or ego involved, expect crisp strategies, practical scripts, and engaging case studies.

Bring a friend, a boss, or that stubborn relative, and leave with a pocket strategy for your next raise, lease negotiation, or “who’s doing the dishes” debate.

Dr. Khurana is a health economist whose innovative work has garnered recognition from the New England Journal of Medicine and the CDC. He has extensive teaching experience, currently designing curricula for executive programs at UCLA and NYU.

Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your negotiation skills with Dr. Khurana!
