Traps:
Do not talk about single issue negotiations Talk about one thing will always
become contentious
Multiple issues allow us to trade off differences
Objectives what do I want to get short & long term with the other side.
Example of employment contract negotiation. Standard & typical are salary,
bonus. Non-standard include opportunities for you to get promoted, develop:
o Project location, type
o Promotion
o Vacation days
Negotiable issues For every single objective, you should have multiple
negotiable issues
If you have differentiation in your business high quality, design, then
negotiate on those qualities negotiate on warranty on product, negotiate on
customization. Put differentiators into differentiation
Professionals are used to expecting smth so they dont argue for strong
enough employment
Evaluate the weakness of the other sides BATNA thats how you should
evaluate your goal. Your goal is based on the weakness of the other
sides BATNA
Reservation point your bottomline determine largely based by your BATNA
the pt at which you would walk away rather than taking the deal. Your
reservation pt and your goal should be uncorrelated. Goal & Reservation
should be completely independent of each other.
Look for 3 houses that you are indifferent between, maybe at different
pricepoints. Then only then offer. You want to build your BATNA
Create a way to score all issues. The goal is to quantify all issues, generally in
terms of dollars
Prioritize issues
Fractionate larger issues into smaller ones If you negotiate too big a bucket,
you will likely clash
o Nanny negotiate vacation days. Nanny cares about how many days.
Medvec cares about which days
o Breaks down into 2 issues: how many days and who gets to pick the
days. Nanny still gets her days and Medvec still gets control
Assign relative weights
Check for indifference between outcomes with the same dollar value
Make sure your scoring system is dynamic not static
Use scoring system to determine reservation price
Vary issues that you want to draw peoples attention to, stay constant for
issues you dont want to draw attention to. Vary issues in the story-telling
quadrants. Vary 5 issues. You want the offer to tell compelling story and you
cant do that if youre varying too many issues. Deliver a big story that
highlights all the varies.
Five Fs
First
Focus on THEM
Frame it correctly
Be Flexible Leave yourself room to concede, Use multiple equivalent
simultaneous offers
No feeble offers Could you take smth off, could you help me out, could you
give me better shelving. Ask for what you want. Be specific. Feeble offers
result in frustration on your side.
