4 NEGOTIATION AS DEALING WITH DILLEMMAS
Toughness dilemma Tension between cooperative behavior versus fighting behavior Flexibility dilemma Tension between exploring negotiating versus avoiding negotiating

5 Cooperative Preserving harmony, avoiding disruption. In situations of opposed interests, this often leads to yielding. Important element of cooperative style is the perceived necessity to keep personal relations good above all else. Fighting Pursuing self-interest at the expense of others. Often focused on power. The fighter will resort to all available weapons (e.g. expertise, rank, financial sanctions) in order to win.

6 Exploring Trying to find a solution that satisfies the interest of the involved parties as much as possible. This means studying a subject to identify the underlying interests and exploring alternatives that satisfy them. Avoiding Resufing to take on the confrontation. E.g. in the form of diplomatic evasion, postponement, stubbornly sticking to one track ‘as a matter of principle’, or simply evading the entire situation.

9 Exploring the jovial the agressive style style the ethical the analytical Cooperating Fighting Avoiding

10 The Jovial (co-operative) Style
Endearing, appealing, positively influences the sphere, strong in building good relations,sensitive for arguments of the other person, flexibel Less effective side: Avoids trial of strength; poor defence; becomes unclear and hesitating Behavior during conflicts: Agrees, even if he believes that is unreasonable; denies conflict

11 The Ethical (convincing) Style
Trust in others; basis in common interests; principles and ideals; forwards solid proposals; not to be influenced; preserves his independent thinking Less effective side: Preaching, withdrawal, gets disappointed and inaccessible for new possibilities, lost his ‘change’ Behavior during conflicts: Holds on, because he fundamentally is right, or gives up discouraged or is ruled out

12 The Agressive (agile) Style
Takes initiative and the lead, also within his team; plays along with unexpected occurances and new developments; keeps negotiations going, even if it hardens Less effective side: Bossy; little chance for others; gets impulsive; creates confusion; can get across as an opportunist Behavior during conflicts: Pushing; fight the conflict to an end; fight like a fighting cock

13 The Analytical (agressive) Style
Good use of hard facts and figures; logical reasoning; focus on quality of arguments; creates clear and logical procedures; brings clarity; controls the principles; preserves overview; has it all in line Less effective side: Stays on the same track; lack of feeling for the atmosphere of discussion; sticks to ‘old’ arguments and points of view Behavior during conflicts: Continuously gathers evidence that he is right; becomes stubborn and inaccessible

14 EXAMPLES You don’t like the proposal and immediately react with criticism or a counter proposal. It is more constructive to first ask for clarification or to wrap up your criticism in the form of a question.

15 EXAMPLES You’re annoyed and show an irritable, cool behavior. In general it is better to put your annoyance in words: “I am sorry, but I can’t help saying, that……”.
