Negotiations (business talks)



BUSINESS COMMUNICATION

Skills of Negotiating

Most negotiations are conducted with a view to reaching a compromise agreement. Both parties together move towards an outcome which is to mutual benefit. This is a range of tactics which can help conduct negotiations. It's no use immediately discussing business matters. The topic at the outset of negotiations should be neutral, non-business. It could be immediate experiences, the sort of journey the visitor has had; football, ice-hockey, the morning's newspaper headlines, common interests, etc.

5 per cent of the negotiating time is devoted to breaking the ice. The two parties adjust their thinking and behavior to one another.

If you want to follow the reaction of your visitor introduce in your speech the question — «Agree?».

At the very beginning of the talks get agreement covering the purpose, plan, agenda of a meeting.

 

Here is some advice to a negotiator:

1. First discuss major items, then minor items.

2. Follow the headlines of the plan one by one.

3. Come over to the next point after you have resolved the previous one.

If talks are difficult and you are in a deadlock, take time-out.

It will help you to build bridges yourself and your partner when you resume negotiations.

PATTERN

Dialogue

 

Ted — the manager of the purchasing department.

David — a student of economics and business

David: Hello, Ted. How are you getting on?

Ted: Thanks, I'm fine and what about you?

David: Everything is all right. You know, I don't know how to draft an order.

Ted: OK. I see. I have 10 minutes for you.

David: Last time I had a lot of problems. Could you help me?

Ted: Well, to make it clear, orders are simply the requests of one business organization for the goods or services, or both of another business organization. Orders may be either oral or written. Even when an order is oral it will usually be confirmed in writing at a later date.

David: Are there any rules that should be followed when preparing an order?

Ted: Sure, here are some of them. First, clearly state the exact quantity of the items you are ordering. Second, identify the catalogue number of the item. Third, list the catalogue price for the total price for the amount of goods ordered. Fourth, describe how the shipment is to be made.

David: Thank you for your information. It will be useful for me.
Ted: Not at all, David. I am always glad to help you.
