Negotiating technique
A negotiation is communication between two parties
with shared and opposing interests.
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
”I like to listen. Most of what I know has been learned by listening carefully to what people are really saying.”
” Most people don't listen. That's why they have no stories to tell.”
Ernest M. Hemingway.
The most powerful tool… listening

Sources of strength in negotiations
In most negotiations, both parties will try to gain advantages by using power derived from one or more of the following sources:
What competitors are offering Time pressure Knowledge and information Personal qualities and attitudes Negotiating ability and experience Personal commitment Investment by the other party Personal or political connections Threat or promise of reward, punishment or other form of sanction Appeal to moral or ethical principles or honesty Differing degrees of need to reach an agreement Ability to find - and use - new variables Empathy - the ability to understand the other party's situation and needs.
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Two basic kinds of negotiations:
Conviction-based negotiations
Interest-based negotiations
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Conviction-based negotiation
I must adopt an opinion or conviction that gives me something with which to negotiate.
I must remain firm in my conviction for as long as possibleand only make minor concessions.
If the other party gets more, there will be less for me.
I have to show how strong I am so I don't lose the power struggle.
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Conviction-based negotiation
• Only one 'right' solution• My solution – not yours• I'm right – you're wrong• Best case: win/lose situation• Worst case: lose/lose situation
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Interest-based negotiation
Generate a result that is so good that nobody could ever beat it
Generate a result that is mutually advantageous so none of the parties want to change it afterwards
Maintain good relations, both during and after the negotiations
Targets:
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Guidelines for interest-based negotiation
Speak openly about your interest• Stick to facts – no guesswork. Be credible
Get the other party to accept and understand your interests
Insist on your interests being met (understood)
Chronology of the negotiation – “meeting points”• Shared interests• Neither/nor interests• Conflicting interests
Acknowledge the interests of the other party(not the same as giving in to them!!)
Formulate the problem before you propose a solution
Be open to corrections
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Interest-based negotiation
Never modify your interests!
Never add or remove points!
WWW.LADEGAARD.AS
Interest-based negotiation
THE METHOD
Keep the person and the problem separate
Focus on interests - not convictions
Find mutually beneficial solutions
Use objective criteria
Know your 'BATANS'
Find the other party's 'BATANS'

Initial discussion: The parties have met but negotiations have not yet commenced.
Before the negotiation
During the negotiation
Proposal: The parties define their interests, demands and offers.
The negotiation: Giving and taking – never give anything away – SWAP!
Compromise(s): When the parties are getting closer – and the differences are clear.
Conclusion: When agreement has been reached – summarize and ACCEPT!

Summary
• Avoid conviction-based negotiations
• When the other party states a conviction – look for the shared interests.
• Find variables – what do we have? What can we bring to the table?
• Be open about your interests.
• Help the other party if defining the shared interests is difficult.
• Acknowledge the other party's interests – both SHARED & CONFLICT.
• Use your variables to find NEITHER/NOR.
• Take a break in the negotiations if necessary.
• Agree on a clear allocation of roles, if there are several of you involved.
• Never forget the conflicting interests.
• Summarize and accept before the parties leave.
• Deliver on what you've promised.
