Not everyone seems to be gifted in the delicate art of negotiation despite its undeniable importance in business and daily living. High stakes business negotiations, in particular, can be very tricky and you cannot rely on the usual strategies to get you through a successful negotiation. By tapping your own basic human emotions while taking into consideration the other party’s humanity as well can actually work to your advantage even in the presence of technological tools such as artificial intelligence. It takes being able to understand where the other person is coming from so you can work around the “whys” behind his perspective and intentions. There also steps to a negotiation process that can ensure your success including preparation, goal-setting and building rapport until you are able to close the deal. At the end of the day, the goal is to arrive at a common negotiated solution or final decision that is highly satisfactory for both parties.
