USED ATTACHED TRADE LOG
Started with a red paperclip
Note the word count at the beginning of this section. Any words that exceed 1000 will not be read or considered when grading your answer.
1. How did the understanding of the interests of the other party aid in moving negotiations forward? Please be sure to include one or more illustrations from your trades.
2. How did your understanding of trades based on you gaining an item that is worth more to you than the other party (trading based on valuing the same item differently) aid in moving negotiations forward? Please be sure to include one or more illustrations from your trades.
3. How did your BATNA affect the outcome across your negotiations? Please be sure to include one or more illustrations from your trades.
You will recall that your BATNA (Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement) is what happens if you do NOT complete your trade. Your BATNA affects your bargaining power. Your power is based on whether you have a better alternative than the trade under consideration.
Your BATNA is NOT the value of your item. The value of your item is relevant only when figuring out your BATNA. For example, if the item you have is worth $50, you should trade for something that is worth more than $50 on the assumption that you can get something worth $50 by turning to your BATNA and making an even trade.
Your BATNA focuses on whether you can get a better deal elsewhere. If you cannot, you have a weak BATNA and have little bargaining power. If you can do better elsewhere, you have some leverage to ask for more from the person you are negotiating with because if you cannot get it, you can resort to your BATNA (Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement).
Based on this negotiation experience, which techniques were the most effective ones to use and that you are likely to use in future negotiations? Please be sure to include two to three illustrations from your trades.
4. Identify effective techniques used in these negotiations which you will incorporate in your future negotiation. You must include a minimum of two concrete examples from your trades.
