MBO Defined: Process in which management and employees jointly define objectives for their organization and understand what they need to do to achieve those objectives. Clear understanding of roles and responsibilities/expectations Activities are related and quantified to the achievement of the organization s goal Culture Clash I think the career of DPPO is terminated, or rather that it has never started, and it won t ever start as long as we in France continue our tendency to [confuse] ideology [with] reality French blue and white collar workers, lower-level and higher-level managers, and patrons all belong to the same cultural system which maintains dependency relations from level to level. Only deviants really dislike the system. The hierarchical structure protects against anxiety. DPO generates anxiety. From French Management Journal 4

1. Strategy (Before you get to the table) 2. Tactics (At the table) Effective Negotiations 19

Preparation Strategy : Shoe Repair Did you figure out your goal/target price to sell (or buy) the Shoe Repair Shop? If so, what was it and on what was it based? If not, why not? Did you figure out what was the most you would pay (or least you would take)? If so, what was it? If not, why not? Did you consider what the other s sides lowest (or highest) price they would pay or take? If so, what did you estimate? If not, why not? BATNA- Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement Did you consider what your options were if you could not get a deal? If so, what were they? How did this impact bargaining? Same questions for the other side. If you had more time to prepare for this negotiation, what additional research would you have done? Why (how could it help)? Preparation of Tactics Did you consider if you wanted to begin negotiations with an offer/demand or let the other side go first? Or did you decide to ask questions? Discuss your interests? Why did you choose this approach? 20

: Shoe Repair Negotiations At the Table How did you actually start negotiations? Discussion of your/other party s interests? Questions? A demand by potential seller (Zapatos)? An offer by potential buyer (Garcia)? Was there information that you learned over the course of the negotiation that changed your view of what you were willing to sell for/buy at? If so, what was the information and how did you learn it? What was the other side s primary interest or interests? What was the result of the negotiation? If agreement, what were the terms? If you did not reach agreement, why not? 21

Reservation Price is the least favorable deal that you are willing to accept, e.g., for a buyer it s the highest price he or she will buy, for the seller the lowest price he or she will sell Resistance Point is the same thing for non-monetary items, e.g., the least favorable deal on an item you would accept This is your bottom line and should be based on the sum of your preparation, particularly, your BATNA You should avoid changing your bottom line unless something has changed, e.g., power analysis, view of standards and norms, new information 22

External, objective criteria a party uses (consciously or unconsciously) to establish and justify its position and evaluate the other side s, e.g., the CPI and market rates are standards used to establish sale price Parties attempt to obtain a combination of what they view (a) is possible and (b) as fair. Fairness is based on external standards and norms, and often so is one s view of what is possible e.g., no one else is getting/giving that, how/why should/can we! Parties that have a desire to reach an agreement can often appeal to standards and norms to bridge differences e.g., agreeing on a reasonable cost target based on research of costs in surrounding areas Where a party does not want to reach an agreement, it may seem as if that party has completely alien standards and norms e.g., when one party s BATNA is so favorable it is just going to do what it wants but even then they are referencing some standard and norm. 23

Based on Key Business/ Organizational Needs Compelling Rationale Based on Data 28

Position Interest One possible answer to a problem that is usually unsatisfactory or unacceptable to the other party. An interest is the underlying reason, concern or desire of the person s or group s connection with the issue. Positions are often mutually inconsistent where the underlying interest is not. 30

Information about the other side can benefit you. Learn as much as possible about the other side's circumstances and preferences-including why they want to make a deal, their real interests and business constraints, and their preferences among issues or options. Harvard Business Essentials: Negotiation (2003), p.4 32

Many negotiations combine distributive and integrative elements: Negotiators must be able to recognize situations that require more of one approach than the other Increase Integrative Pie-Expanding solutions by focusing on interests and increasing the number of issues to negotiate Negotiators must be versatile in their use of both major strategic approaches Negotiator perceptions of situations tend to be biased toward seeing problems as more distributive than they really are 33
