When I first entered the Negotiation: Theory and Practice course, I realized that this course would be something I would remember. The course initiated my mind into multilevel thinking when negotiating. Reading the book “Getting More” by Diamond (2010), I could really identify with many of his negotiation examples. Interacting with literature and having classroom experiences sparked my interest in the topic of negotiation. The one example with the apartment building and the mouse problem is relatable as I am dealing with the situation with my apartment complex. I think back to the methods I tried to fix the mouse problem, but none were successful for over two months. By using the method of painting a clear picture to the other person, you have created an image in the other person's mind. The method actually worked by gathering information and educating my apartment complex about mouse-borne diseases. People negotiate about things in different situations every day. Contrary to the school literature, Diamond (2010) suggests not to relationships, interests, win-win outcomes just because a person thinks it is an effective tool. His teaching and literature focus on achieving and achieving your goals in negotiations. Examining the twelve main strategies gave me a different perspective on how I viewed trades. The model explained how to get the best out of your goals and objectives. Kolb and Williams (2001) suggest that negotiation is a science created to enable an all-wins-wins approach to negotiation. RelationshipsDiamond (2010) also criticizes the relationship between two parties and putting oneself in the other person's shoes. This allows you to feel what the other person might be feeling first... middle of the paper... is important to help you get an idea of appropriate gestures to use in negotiations. Diamond not only provides insight into some of his students' greatest triumphs, but he does so in a humble, human, and relatable way that shows remarkable self-reflection and understanding of negotiations.
