WHAT ARE NEGOTIATIONS?
Or in other words, negotiation is about effective communication. InWinning at Business Negotiations. A Guide to Profitable DealMaking, Colin Robinson says that
The essence of negotiations is that it is not aboutwinning or losing- it is about striking a dealwhich is satisfactory to both sides. Of course,your efforts should be directed towards ensuringthat it is more satisfactory to your side than tothe other.

(2) an integral part of the team decision-making process.

NEGOTIATION: SOME INITIAL IMPLICATIONS
1. Negotiation is a mix ofCOMPETITIVENESS and COOPERATION- competitiveness because each negotiator is standing in the way of the otherachieving their goal but at the same time , cooperation is needed becausewithout the others help neither will achieve anything at all.
2. Negotiation is about an ISSUEwhat the differences are between the partiesbut it is also a PROCESS- how the parties will try to resolve their differences.Therefore, negotiators have to manage both the issue and the process toachieve good outcome.
3. Negotiation involves CHOICE.Although negotiators constantly make choicesabout how the negotiation should proceed, they do not have control.

6. Interdependence
a. Interdependent relationships are characterized by interlocking goals.- theparties need each other in order to accomplish their goals one who isdependent on another must accept and accommodate the other partys demandand idiosyncracies.

determines the range of possible outcomes of the negotiation andsuggests the appropriate strategies and tactics that the negotiator should usei.e win-lose (purchasing a product/vehicle), win-win (joint ventures).

helps others to achieve their goals (positive correlation)i
