The Board

Our team consists of students from the University of Twente, all with different backgrounds in Technical Computer Science, Communication Sciences, Business Information Technology, and International Business Administration. Our board includes two individuals who participated in and won the Warsaw Negotiation Round in 2023.

Richard Botez
Richard Botez
Chairman

My name is Richard Botez, and I am the Chairman of NPT 23/24. In business, the difference between a good deal and a great deal is made by outstanding negotiation skills.

Joining the NPT board is a new challenge, and one of my goals is to help create the next generation of great negotiators. I look forward to working with innovative, like-minded individuals from the negotiating community, and together with my fellow board members, we wish to bring prosperity to NPT.

I am extremely thrilled to work together with like-minded individuals and look forward to everything that comes with being part of the NPT board.

Juliana Bouic
Juliana Bouic
Secretary

My name is Juliana Bouic. In the past year, I had the privilege of being part of the NPT cohort, where I had the opportunity to acquire negotiation skills under the guidance of exceptional instructors. This year, I've taken a step further by joining the board, aiming to contribute to the discussion on negotiation, this time with a focus on its application within the realm of business.

Negotiation is an indispensable skill for individuals no matter their background. I look forward to collaborating with my fellow board members this year and am excited to see the valuable experiences and insights that being a part of the NPT board will bring

Pavan Awadhpersad
Treasurer

After being part of the NPT cohort myself and having the opportunity to learn, hone, and apply the negotiation skills I was taught, I saw joining the board of NPT 2023/2024 as a perfect opportunity to allow others to enjoy the same experience and simultaneously apply my own skill set in a different environment.

I am extremely thrilled to work together with like-minded individuals and look forward to everything that comes with being part of the NPT board.

Jasmine Mortimer
Jasmine Mortimer
Marketing Lead

My name is Jasmine Mortimer, I am currently a second-year student at the University of Twente studying Communication Science. I am the marketing lead of NPT for the cohort year of 2023-24

I never thought I would have the rare opportunity to join NPT, having little to no experience in negotiations. However, I was proved wrong and have been delighted to be allowed to watch NPT grow and be able to be a part of the process.

Joining NPT was a challenge and continues to be a challenge, but I am motivated to know that the work I will be doing will help future negotiators and provide them with new exciting opportunities and experiences.

I am extremely excited to be a part of NPT and am excited for everyone to see what it has to offer, not just for myself but for everyone taking part in NPT.
