School Board

 1. Intra-Team Negotiation The negotiation within the team was very difficult because at times there would be a disconnect between the members of the team. Each team member had their own rankings of what was least important to most important and coming together to find the middle ground among those rankings to satisfy each team member was the most challenging for us but in the end, we had to compromise and find a middle ground. At times during the negotiations among my team, it felt as if my team members were my opponent because they are times when we are not on the same page and would butt heads. 2. Rule of Emotions The emotions within the team based on my experience were medium because I disagreed with my group's soft approach, and I wanted to make more aggressive offers to our competitor and less settling for the things that benefit our competitor. My emotions against our competitor were high because I was eager to get the absolute best deal and the things that was ranked at the...

"How to Manage Your Negotiating Team"

1.   Aligning Team Interests: Plans to manage my concerns during negotiation.

Ensure that everyone on the board understands the overarching objectives and individual roles within the negotiation process.

Six Channels of Persuasive

  Strength Rationality: Of the six channels of persuasive channels, rationality is my strength because my way of persuading others through arguments is based on facts, evidence, and sound reasoning. I like to present rational arguments, that are more likely to be seen as credible and knowledgeable on the subject matter, which enhances my persuasiveness. Being Rational allows me to be transparent. It allows others to see the logic behind my argument and make informed decisions. This transparency builds trust and also makes me seem more reliable. Weakness Politics:  Politics often involves deeply entrenched beliefs and partisan divisions which I have no interest in taking part in. People's political views are strongly influenced by their identity and affiliation with political parties or ideologies. This can make it challenging for me to persuade someone with opposing political beliefs using rational arguments or any other channel, as they may be motivated to reject ideas that c...

Three Schools of Bargaining Ethics

 The School of Bargaining Ethics that I subscribe to the most is the Rights-based ethics because it emphasizes the importance of respecting individual rights and upholding principles of fairness and justice in negotiations. Key principles within the school of thought include: Respect for Autonomy: Negotiators should respect the autonomy and rights of all parties involved. This means not coercing or pressuring others into agreements against their will. Fairness and Equity: Bargaining should be conducted in a fair and equitable manner, ensuring that all parties have an equal opportunity to voice their concerns and interests. Legal and Moral Rights: Negotiators should adhere to both legal and moral rights, which may include property rights, human rights, and contractual rights. Rule-Based Ethics: Some proponents of rights-based ethics adhere to specific rules or codes of conduct that guide their negotiations, such as the principles of honesty, transparency, and non-discrimination.

Negotiation in a Job Offer

 A) Some things that I have discussed with an employer before I got the job: Start Date Tuition Reimbursement Bonuses and Incentives Remote work and Flexible Hours Sign-on bonuses Benefits Salary Negotiating with one's employer is a unique type of negotiation compared to other situations, such as buying a car, haggling at a flea market, or negotiating a business deal. The dynamics, considerations, and goals are distinct in the context of employer-employee negotiations. Here are some key differences: Long-term relationship: Employee-employer negotiations are typically part of a long-term relationship. Unlike one-time transactions, employment negotiations can impact your career trajectory, job satisfaction, and future opportunities within the organization. Power dynamics: Employer-employee negotiations often involve a significant power imbalance. The employer typically has more control over factors like salary, benefits, and job security. This power dynamic can make employees feel mo...
