The Fine Art of Negotiations

Frankly, as a negotiator, I don’t always get what I want and that’s okay by me; I get what I need (with all due respect to the Rolling Stones). How about you? [I like her 5 points.]
“Fletcher says good negotiators have an ability to do five things well when striking a deal:”
1. THEY SET THE STAGE;
2. THEY FIND COMMON GROUND;
3. THEY ASK WITH CONFIDENCE;
4. THEY EMBRACE THE PAUSE;
5. THEY KNOW WHEN TO LEAVE.
