Negotiation is a process where parties try to reach an agreement or compromise on issues in dispute. It involves exchanging offers and counteroffers to find mutually acceptable solutions. Effective negotiation requires preparation, understanding both sides' objectives and priorities, developing alternative options, and using strategies like focusing on interests rather than positions to achieve win-win outcomes when possible. Key roles for negotiators include maintaining team unity, understanding the issues, preparing necessary information, seeking compromise, and knowing when to conclude the negotiation. Personality traits alone do not determine outcomes, but both gender and power can influence negotiating style and perceived success.
3. Negotiation is a process where each party
involved in negotiating tries to gain an
advantage for themselves by the end of
the process. Negotiation is intended to
aim at compromise.

which its own goals & perspectives coordinate areas of interest
through concessions & compromise to reach an agreement and
take the joint decision about areas of common concerns in a
situation in which neither side has nor wants to use power.
5. 3- Rubin and Brown (1975)
Negotiation refers to a process in which individuals work
together to formulate agreements about the issues in
dispute. This process assumes that the parties involved are
willing to communicate and to generate offers, counteroffers, or both. Agreement occurs if and only if the offers
made are accepted by both of the parties.
4- Minton( 2001)
The degree to which the interests of the parties are
aligned can facilitate the range and type of outcomes
available for resolution.
6. 1-DISTRIBUTIVE NEGOTIATION
The most distributive feature is that it operates under a zero sum
game, that the gain made by one person is loss incurred by the
other person.
Each person involved in the negotiation defines ultimate point
where the settlement will be made.
2-INTEGRATIVE NEGOTIATION
The characteristic feature of integrative bargaining is that it relies
in win-win situation and therefore uses a collaborative model of
conflict resolution. Both parties involved in negotiation process
jointly look at the problem, try to search for alternatives and try to
evaluate them and reach a mutually acceptable decision or
solution.

9. Certainty
The aim of contract negotiation is firstly to achieve certainty, to record what is
being supplied, when, in what quantities and to what standard, and what are the
consequences of delay or failure to meet the agreed requirements.
The best deal
Seeking clarity does not conflict with the view that negotiations should achieve
the best deal, it merely points out that both parties to a negotiation have to
understand what it is that they have agreed to.
Achievement of an Organization's objectives
The goal of every negotiation must be to achieve a result which, even if it
falls short of the original objective, can be considered a satisfactory
advancement towards it.
Create of a long-term relationship between the parties
Whilst this is not always possible, and some cultures, such as the
Japanese, place more emphasis on this aspect of negotiation, this is
increasingly important as companies build networks of alliance partners.
