AI-Powered Simulation Training for Diplomacy, Negotiation, and Crisis Communication

Jan Kasprzycki-Rosikon is the Founder and CEO of Convrsy, Inc., an AI-powered communication training platform focused on high-stakes negotiation, crisis communication, and adversarial simulation. Previously, he co-founded and scaled MillionYou, a collective intelligence and crowdsourcing platform acquired by EY. Over the past decade, he has led large-scale innovation and AI initiatives across Europe, the Middle East, and the United States, working with global organizations and public-sector stakeholders. His current work focuses on applying AI simulation to diplomacy, leadership training, and values-based education. This lecture explores how AI-driven simulation can be used to prepare individuals and institutions for high-stakes conversations in diplomacy, public affairs, and crisis environments. Rather than focusing on AI as a tool for content generation, the session examines AI as a training mechanism, capable of recreating emotionally complex negotiations, strategic dialogue, escalation scenarios, and real-time decision pressure. The discussion will also address broader implications for national security, negotiation training, leadership development, and the future of strategic influence in an era of increasingly persuasive AI. **Learn more about IWP graduate programs: https://www.iwp.edu/academics/graduate-degree-programs/ ***Make a gift to IWP: https://wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebLink.aspx?name=E231090&id=3
