Heated, often lengthy negotiations are an integral part of human coexistence. There are many examples for this. But what exactly is going on? And why is that justified?

The winner takes it all

In professional life and especially in the digitized one Working world we can all observe this very closely: The winner takes it all. Even if we are rather willing to compromise feel, our brain may thwart us on account.

Veni, vidi, vici: I came, I saw, I won. Even today, this saying of the old Caesar is often quoted and has something fascinating for many.

It should go quickly with the “victory” over the “opponent”. The reality is different. The more time you have, the less you are dependent on a short-term result, often bought with great compromises. Whoever determines time and space is always the more powerful.

Despite years of hard work, it was not you who received the longed-for promotion, but the youngster with the big mouth? No matter what you are with your Executive negotiate, you lose out?

How to negotiate correctly!

Do not beg any longer, stop meekly nodding to any rejection, realize your value and negotiate! For who does not negotiate, who does not win!

With a courageous, self-assured attitude and positive attitude to negotiation, you will also leave the negotiation table with a winning smile and a great load of dopamine in the blood.

Lazy compromises, in which the brain rejoices

Discounts for your success (advertising)!

By the way: 90% of all People are willing to compromise. The only question is what the individual understands by compromise. fifty fifty? Probably not.

Rather "80 percent to me, 20 percent to you." A compromise where the reward center should cheer. Be vigilant that it is your own and not that of your negotiating partner.

Three examples of negotiations

  1. Example ThyssenKrupp: Negotiations on merger of the stainless steel division with Outokumpu confirmed. They are currently in talks with ThyssenKrupp to explore possible strategic options. At the present time, however, there is no certainty as to whether there will actually be a transaction, it said.
  2. Example Stuttgart 21:  The railway boss relies on negotiations at Stuttgart 21: In the dispute over the additional costs for the Stuttgart 21 construction project, railway boss Rüdiger Grube is opting for a friendly solution. "We don't want a fight," said Grube.
  3. Example of negotiations on the EU agriculture budget: The negotiations on the future of the EU's agricultural policy aimed at achieving progress in environmental protection, for the rural population and in long-term food security. However, it seems that the well-known culture of agricultural payments continues.

What happens there?

One wonders: what happens there? When will the parties finally come to a conclusion? Of course, successful negotiation always requires a good deal of perseverance.

Experience shows, however, that often the moment of “switching” from competing Behavior ("I'll assert myself", "I won't give in", "I'll flatten you") on cooperative behavior (where do we have things in common, how can we take the interests of both sides into account, what have we already achieved together, where could a compromise lie?) is missed.

From competition to cooperation

This is absolutely necessary if you want to achieve a common result. Negotiations are always interactions between people in whom emotions play an important role - even if many do not want to or even deny that.

Even if the situation is initially tense due to provocations, defensiveness on the part of the other side or even personal attacks - a positive atmosphere in the conversation leads to positive ones emotions at.

It depends on the negotiating partner

It's never about your cause, yours Set, your interests alone, but always also those of the negotiating partner. This is the big one Art: Find out exactly what the other person wants, what moves them, what they respond to, what they really want or need.

Anyone who provokes or attacks usually starts an avalanche that they can no longer control. So-called “irritating comments”, contrary to popular belief, do not really weaken the opponent.
