This PowerPoint file of 10 slides outlines a four-step process for successful negotiation. Teams will learn to

  • Discover participants’ reasons or interests
  • Invent options for mutual gain
  • Choose objective criteria
  • Reach agreement (or not)

From preparation and preliminaries to formulating a Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement (or BATNA), teams will learn what to bring to the negotiating table, how to listen actively and participate constructively while there, and what to do when negotiations don’t go as planned.

Lenses

A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
