Teaching Practical Diplomacy Skills

[Please click "More" to read our disclaimer below] In most countries, new diplomats are not sufficiently prepared to carry out their duties. Lacking many of the skills needed to work in embassies and foreign ministries, and having received almost no formal training, they spend years learning fundamental competencies on the job. That hurts the effectiveness and impact of diplomacy globally. Nicholas Kralev, the founding executive director of the Washington International Diplomatic Academy, thinks that academia can and should help prepare more directly the next generation of diplomats for the daily work of professional diplomacy. He is trying to encourage more professors and universities to teach practical diplomacy skills. Cambridge University Press recently published his book, Diplomatic Tradecraft, the first-ever practical diplomacy textbook. In this workshop, Kralev will share his experience designing and executing professional diplomacy training. After reviewing the core skill sets of modern diplomacy, he will offer suggestions on teaching those skills in an academic environment. He will also provide insights into diplomacy careers, which can help students better understand the profession and make more informed decisions about pursuing it.
