Principles And Tactics Of Negotiation

Gina Blair and Daniel Trent cooperate and collaborate to achieve a common objective throughout their negotiation. A cooperative negotiation style is demonstrated as they combine their points of view regarding their clients concerns with outcomes to effectively solve the issues raised. The main focus of the negotiation is to reach an agreement rather than a continuous dispute. Accordingly, the conflicting objectives were resolved by compromises and solutions but forward by both Gina and Daniel. The negotiation style used between Gina and Daniel is described as principled negotiation where both parties jointly attack the problems arising to achieve a compromise.

This paper presents my reflections on the Negotiations: Strategy and practice coursework in the MBA program at Said Business School, University of Oxford. My paper will present various reflections on different themes of negotiation simulation undertaken by me during the course. This course has allowed investigating and reflecting on key drivers of negotiation techniques for me. I have learned that transparency and coalition are the core tenet of negotiation for me. For the purpose of this reflective exercise, I will conduct a comparative analysis of the process, dynamics and outcomes based on the themes such as negotiation styles, bargaining zones, power, emotion, coalitions, value claiming vs value creation etc. for the below-mentioned simulations:

Cahn and Abigail (2014) define negotiation as “a particular type of conflict management—one characterized by an exchange of proposals and counter proposals as a means of reaching a satisfactory settlement” (p. 229). Negotiation is a fact of life. Subsequently, we spend a substantial amount of time negotiating for something every day. The fact of the matter is that life is full of conflict situations. Whether in our personal or professional lives and whether or not we are aware of it, we are often engaged in conflict situations that require tapping into our conflict negotiation skills. From deciding what movie to see, where to eat, to asking one’s boss for a raise, we are all engaged in some type of negotiation. These real-life

In this article, George E. Dickenson and Heath C. Hoffmann (2016) discuss how deep an animal's emotional intelligence truly is. They discussed how when an animal is being euthanized those surrounding it understand what is happening and react in a way that is almost human. They found this by conducting a survey taken by certified veterinarians. Even when an animal is just sitting in the waiting room before they receive the shot the other animals around them start to go over to the sick animal as if they are saying goodbye or comforting it. Those surrounding the sick canine also start to express sorrow, act on their owner's emotions, and feel stress (p. 61-65). Since veterinarians completed the survey and every source they used are reliable

In this negotiation exercise, I was assigned as the Seaborne Governor’s negotiator as part of a six member party meeting to negotiate a deal with Harborco to build and operate a deepwater port off the coast of Seaborne. The Governor on the whole was very interested in seeing this deepwater port built in Seaborne as she believes that the size of the project would provide the stimulus for a dramatic recovery in the state.

Consequently, negotiation is a process that can be approached in many ways. No matter what strategy we choose, success lies in how well we prepared. The key to negotiating a beneficial outcome is the negotiators’ ability to consider all the elements of the situation carefully and to identify and think through the options. At the same time, negotiators must be able to keep events in perspective and be as fair and honest as circumstance allows. Because a common ground or interest has brought the parties to the negotiating table, a negotiator can benefit by trying to capitalize on this common

I strongly disagree with the US government negotiating with terrorists. Realistically, US government's does negotiate with terrorists, particularly in the area of a prisoner exchange, but the world has been oblivious to this dreadful matter. The argument against negotiating with terrorists is simple. The US government should never negotiate with terrorists, meaning never giving in to violence, and never let the terrorists be rewarded for using violence. Negotiations give legitimacy to terrorists and their methods and undermine actors who have pursued political change through peaceful means. As a result, negotiating with terrorist can undermine or disrupt the negotiating government’s political systems, allow terrorists to gain power, and set a dangerous precedent (Toros, 5). Negotiating with terrorist is going to be a continuous issue because of this non-valuable law and foreign policy, which is to forbid the government from negotiating with a terrorist.

There are many individuals who believe that he or she must do what it ever it takes to win, this is also true for negotiations. But as honest adults, with personal standards, one must focus on ethically correct actions that lead one to win. These activities involve planning and preparation. These are great tactics that can lead a professional to success while dealing with negotiations or management. There are many other ethically correct tactics that can lead a professional to reach their goals or objectives. Many times when negotiations become stressful or tough, one can easily choose the actions that will questions ones moral principles. Also, such circumstances can easily lead an individual to lye or practice deceptive tactics. Such practices can seem normal if one fails to recognize the difference between right or wrong. One must always remain ready to analyze the situation and tell the difference between right or wrong. By doing so one will apply the correct bargaining mix and succeed at doing what is right and at negotiating. When dealing with negotiations, many believe that it is fair to say that certain modifications to ones practices must take part to win a negotiation. These actions or moves must not involve questioning ones ethics. One must remain honest with the other party, this will help negotiations to remain honest during the process. Honesty will send out the right message. This message must show the other party that one is willing

An effective negotiator is a strategic negotiator, who is able to switch back and forth between different phases of a negotiation without losing the goal in mind. An effective negotiator takes time to process what is happening during the negotiation and ensures that the right problem is being resolved while taking into consideration other party’s intrests to finding a common ground. Concequently those type of actions facilitate in the process of a negotiation by creating a cooperative environment and enhance the furture relationship between the parties (Fells 2012; Sebenius 2001). An effective negotiator aknowledges that no party is the same and as every negotiation, every negotiator is different from one another. These variations explain the DNA of negotiation that requires an effective negotiator to take into considerations the strands of the DNA, such as “reciprocity, trust, power, information exchange, ethics, and outcome” that vary from person to person (Fells 2012, pg 8).

In life there is always some type of give and take amongst others. Some exchange may be beneficial and some can be regretful.
