About negotiation notes

GoConqr Original

What the negotiation notes cover

The notes bring together summaries of negotiation concepts and approaches. They cover BATNA, the zone of potential agreement and anchoring, as well as planning, persuasion and difficult negotiations. Other notes consider international negotiation and the distinction between interests and positions.

How to use the notes

Start with the notes on negotiation concepts for a summary of BATNA, reservation price, the zone of potential agreement and value creation through trade. Then read the notes on planning and preparation to connect those ideas with the bargaining situation.

As you read, compare how the notes describe power and persuasion. You can also revisit the summary on interests and positions when reviewing approaches to agreement. Teachers can use the notes as a starting point for discussion.

For a visual overview, switch to a mind map on the Negotiation unit page. If you want to test your recall, try a quiz there after reading a note.
