Interest-based negotiation • • • Reconcile interests Problem-solving approach Creative solutions Common ground Trade-offs Concessions
Rights-based negotiation • Cased on laws • Negotiation • arbitration
Power-based negotiation • Coercion • Aggression • Witholding benefits
Which is the best option? • Transaction costs eg strikes, replacement • Satisfaction of outcomes: “fairness” • Effect on the relationship: long-term, the ability to work together • Recurrence – agreement does not ¡stick’
Bear in Mind • Interests v Rights/Power – often off the topic • Rights v Power – strain relationship (eg parents/kids) • Power and coercion can damage relationships
‘Classical’ options/styles • • • AVOID ACCOMODATE COMPETE COLLABORATE COMPROMISE NO STRATEGY Lose- Lose - Win - Lose Win – Win? / Lose – Lose? “let the chips fall” / ‘laissez faire’, lazy?
