Characteristics Common to All Negotiation Situations
There are two or more partiesThere is a conflict of interest between themParties negotiate because they think they can
get a better deal than by taking what the other side will give them.
Parties prefer to search for agreement rather than:
– Fight openly– Capitulate – Permanently break off contact– Take their dispute to a third party

Characteristics Common to All Negotiation Situations (cont.)
Parties expect give and take. They expect both sides will modify or give in somewhat on their opening statements, requests, or demands
Successful negotiation involves:– The resolving of tangibles (e.g., the price or the
terms of agreement)
– The resolution of intangibles (the underlying psychological motivations)

Value Creation
Synergy: the notion the "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts".
Negotiators should be aware that potential differences can be used to reach agreement
It is also possible to create value through shared interests and through scale (task too big for one party to accomplish alone)

Levels of Conflict Intrapersonal or Intrapsychic Conflict
– Conflict that occurs within an individual We want an ice cream cone badly, but
we know that ice cream is very fattening
Interpersonal Conflict – Conflict is between individual people
Conflict between bosses and subordinates, spouses, siblings, roommates etc.

Levels of Conflict (cont.) Intragroup Conflict
– Within-group negotiation Among team and committee members and within
families, classes etc. Intergroup Conflict
– Conflict can occur within groups and among groups simultaneously
Conflict between unions and management, warring nations, feuding families, or community action groups and government authorities
– These negotiations are the most complex

Dysfunctions of Conflict Competitive processes
– Parties compete because they believe that their goals are in opposition and that they cannot both achieve their objectives
Misperception and bias– As conflict intensifies:
Perceptions become distorted Thinking tends to become stereotypical and biased
Emotionality– Parties may become increasingly emotional and
irrational as the conflict escalates

Dysfunctions of Conflict (cont.) Decreased communication
– Parties communicate less with those who disagree with them, more with those who agree
Blurred issues– The parties become less clear about:
How the dispute started What it is “really about” What it will take to solve it
Rigid commitments– Parties become more committed to their points of
view and less willing to back down from them for fear of losing face

Dysfunctions of Conflict (cont.) Magnified differences, minimized similarities
– This distortion leads the parties to believe they are farther apart from each other than they really are
Escalation of the conflict– Both parties attempt to win by:
Increasing their commitment to their position, Increasing the resources they are willing to put up
to “win,” Increasing their tenacity in holding their ground
under pressure

Five Major Strategies for Conflict Management:
1 Contending – Actors pursue own outcomes strongly, show little
concern for other party obtaining their desired outcomes
2 Yielding– Actors show little interest in whether they attain own
outcomes, are quite interested in whether the other party attains their outcomes
3 Inaction – Actors show little interest in whether they attain own
outcomes, little concern about whether the other party obtains their outcomes
