Do you enjoy confusing your counterpart with facts, figures and “uncontrolled” emotional outbursts? If you plan on building up a long term relationship with your business partner you should forego tactics like these. There are four ways of introducing a more co-operative negotiating technique as taught on a good management course as follows:

Separate person from situation

Negotiations can quickly change from discussions about technical points to conflicts between personalities. If the person responsible is annoyed by the question during negotiation then none of the logical arguments in the world will progress the situation. If you offend someone’s ego, their sense of being right or their values then their negotiating position is more likely to harden.

If you blame someone, criticise them or reject their ideas and suggestions, they will feel attacked and hit back at the same level.

Throughout the full negotiation, try to consider questions in a productive way in order to maintain an affirmative relationship with the other person. Human emotions and fears may hinder the progress, if you are unable to make questions mutual or do not keep the discussions on a technical basis. You would therefore need to change the way you negotiate. Here are some examples taken from a management course:

Before the 1880s, there were almost no systematic efforts to find ways to properly manage workers. The practice of management before 1880 was based primarily on experience, intuition, and common sense. Frederick W. Taylor (1856-1915), a self-taught engineer who worked his way up from clerk to chief engineer at the Midvale Steel Company by the age of 28, tried to change that approach, espousing the view that managers should study work scientifically in order to identify the important elements of a task. His engineering background provided a model for establishing principles of management that would guide scientific analysis of work so as to improve task efficiency. Taylor’s principles can be summarized as follows:

• Determine important elements of a task. Taylor believed that managers should observe and analyze each task to uncover the most economical way to perform the job and then put that way into operation.

To enable managers to study work scientifically, Taylor promoted the use of time studies. Time studies measure all task movements made by a worker and try to eliminate those that do not lead to increased productivity.

The electronic technology was the emerging technology that began to develop in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, and it was developed most rapidly and used most widely in the twentieth century, which became an important symbol of the development of modern science and technology. Quickly, various electronic products such as DVD, VCD, radio, MP3 and so on emerged and have been updated all the time. Nowadays electronic products are an extremely important part in people’s daily life, we use electronic products all the time, and it is even beyond imagination that what our life will be without electronic products.

Mp3, Mp4 have existed for a long time, and now even all the modern young people have Mp3 or Mp4. A Mp3 or Mp4 is very convenient, it is very easy to take along because it is generally very light and small, and it can be used for a long time after being charged. People can use it to listen to music, play small games, read some electronic novels and so on, some Mp3 or Mp4 even has the function of taking pictures. With the development of science and technology, they are designed to have more and more functions.
