Selling & Negotition Notes
Q1] what is Negotiation?
Negotiation is the mean by which people deal with their differences. Whether those differences involve purchase of a new automobile, a labor contract dispute, the terms of sale, a complex alliance between two companies, or a peace accord between warring nations, resolutions are typically sought through negotiations. To negotiate is to seek mutual agreement through dialogue.
A business negotiation may be a formal affair that takes place across the proverbial bargaining table, in which you haggle over price and performance.
It could be much more casual, such as meetings of a manager with his subordinate employees whose collaboration is needed to get a job done.
If you are a supervisor, manager, or executive, you spend probably a good part of your day negotiating with people inside or outside your organization – often without even realizing it.
Given the role of negotiations in our personal and professional lives, it is important to improve our negotiating skills. Even a modest improvement in those skills can yield a sizable payoff, such as larger pay raise, a better deal on a home purchase, or more effective working arrangements in the office.
Q2] Types of negotiations?
Distributive Negotiation: A negotiation in which the parties compete over the distribution of a fixed sum of value. The key question in a distributed negotiation is “who will claim the most Value”?. In distributive negotiations, a gain by one side is made at the expense of the other.
Distributive Negotiation can also be referred as a Zero-sum, or constant-sum, or the win-lose situation.
A seller’s goal is to negotiate as high as possible, a buyer’s goal is to negotiate as low as possible.
Distributive negotiation is more like a tug of war, each negotiator aims to “pull” the final deal point as close to his or her side’s desired price as possible.
