What is meant by “negotiation”? How would you define “negotiation”?A nego tiation is a meeting in which both parties need each other’s agreementto reach a specific objective. It is the mechanism by which people trade things of value in a civilized manner. Negotiation depends on communication.It occurs between individuals acting either for themselves or as representatives of organized groups. Negotiations are very much part of working and home life. Negotiations could be either internal or external, long or short, formal or informal. The goal of negotiation is not to win but to succeed. The mechanism of successful negotiation is collaboration.In negotiations, both parties should know----why they negotiate----who they negotiate with----what they negotiate about----where they negotiate----when they negotiate----how they negotiate1) T 2) T 3) T 4) F (Everything is negotiable.)5) F (bargaining stage)6) F ( Do not often. Sometimes they will follow the sequence n one aspect of thedeal and then start all over again on a second aspect.)7) T8) F (May not. Because either side may be wiling to say what it thinks or takea position and stick to it )9) T 10)Negotiation skills1.What determines a success in negotiation? Success in negotiation is when the parties to the negotiation reach an agreement to which they are both committed and which they will implement in full.committed [] v.----尽责的implement [] v.----to put into practical effect; carry out 使生效;执行2. What are the elements of a successful negotiation process?There are seven basic elements that should be considered when analyzing the negotiation process:a.The relationship among the parties.b.The parties' interests -- why they need to reach their stated objectivesc.An understanding of the choices available if the parties cannot reachagreement, often called their BATNA -- Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreementd.Creativity which will expand the bargaining choices among which theparties can choose to reach agreemente.Fairness -- a person who negotiates unfairly may be able to force anagreement, but the 'forced' party will be reluctant to fulfill their share of the agreementf.Whether commitment has been reached. Will the parties each feelcommitted to doing what they have agreed? Is each party capable of fulfilling their share of the deal?g.Negotiation is all about communicating information. If one party knowseverything then why do they need to negotiate with anyone else?And the foundation of good negotiation is preparation. Be prepared and the negotiation will bring a result that really works. If well prepared you areless vulnerable to surprise, and that increases the likelihood you'll be happy with the result.vulnerable [] adj.----易受攻击的, 易受...的攻击3. Your client comes into your office and is exceedingly grumpy and difficult to talk to. How do you approach your client so as to make your meeting as productive as possible?Answer: (e)When the client is grumpy, their emotions will inevitably cloud their judgment and make it difficult to interact with them on substantive matters.At the same time, if they are experiencing anger, it is important to ensure them that we understand that they are upset. By acknowledging the client's anger and offering our assistance, the client will feel as though we are on the "same side" and treat us as friends and continue to direct their anger elsewhere- allowing us to focus on the substantive issues.substantive [] adj.----of or relating to the essence 实质的Chapter 2 Proper Behaviors in International Business Negotiation Communication Skills1.

The person you are negotiating with continually repeats the same argument despite the fact that you have given them a number of counterarguments. What do youdo to move the negotiation forward? Answer: (a)One of the most powerful tools in negotiation is how to listen to what the other party is saying. Very often, we are too focused on the points we are trying to get across to listen to what our counterparts are trying to say.If people keep repeating themselves, they are subconsciously sending a signal that they feel what they are saying is important. And they want us to acknowledge that we have heard and understand them.Accordingly, the best thing to do in this situation is to rephrase what they keep repeating and ask them if we have accurately restated their point. Only when they feel as though they have been heard will they be able to listen to usEffective listening involves much more than simply hearing and understanding what the counterpart is saying. Effective listening isa set of tools and techniques which expertnegotiators use to gain control of the negotiation and turn it to their advantage.2. What are the key communication skills used in negotiation?The key communication skill in negotiation is to listen. There's an old saying: God gave us one mouth and two ears, and we should use them in that ratio.Obviously when we are listening, we need to be listening for useful information. Thus it is very important to plan ahead, thinking about what we can learn that will help us decide what approach to take and to learn about what appeals to the parties with whom we are negotiating. So think about the questions you're going to ask; the result should reward your listening with real problem-solving information.Chapter 3 Choosing the Negotiation TeamCommunication Exercises1.

How to be a cool negotiator?Acting cool is a good part of successful negotiation. But one needs to make sure it is not just an act. The 'coolness' needed for successfulnegotiation really means keeping a cool analytical head. If there is anychance one should prepare ahead of time: what do I want and why do Iwant it? What do they want and why do they want what they want?During the process, one should find ways to take a step back from thediscussion and look at what is going on with that same cool head. 'Why did he say that? What arguments or tactics are being used?3. How to control anger for effective negotiating?When tempted to get angry, remember to check whether or not it is yourturn. If it is someone else's turn to get angry, sit there and take it byreminding you how wonderful you are to be in such control of youremotions.One fundamental rule is: only one person can be angry at a time. Don't let the situation escalate, civility will slip away awfully quickly and there willbe a very tough time healing the relationship or solving the initial issue. civility [] n. ----a courteous act or utterance有礼貌的举止或表达4. What are the advantages and disadvantages of team negotiations?Negotiating as part of a team requires very careful preparation. The biggest danger in team negotiation is that your counterparts will see or hear thatyou and your colleagues don't agree with each other. If they can finddifferences, they may spot opportunities to drive wedges between your team members.wedge [] n.----something that intrudes and causes division or disruption侵入引起分裂的东西Teams can work together ahead of time on strategy: who is going to be the spokesperson on which issues? What information do we need and who isgoing to ask the relevant questions? Who can communicate what decisions to the 'other side'? What members of the team are the experts on technical matters, business matters, etc.?But even if a group of colleagues work hard at developing a commonlyagreed strategy you will find that, there is still a risk that someone will say something out of turn or which is not part of his role. They need to explore how to cope with such problems during the actual negotiation.Individual negotiations have certain other advantages: the negotiator can present him/herself as the decision-maker or as the spokesperson for their company or colleagues. This gives the individual negotiator considerableflexibility that may not be available in team negotiation situations.Chapter 4 Preparing for NegotiationCommunication Exercises1.

Do you think all negotiations need an agenda? Who should be responsible for controlling a negotiation?Informal negotiations don’t need an agenda. In some cases, you are negotiating just one point. An agenda is often best negotiated rather than imposed at the start of a meeting. Usually the host company should be responsible for controlling the negotiation.5. How can you prepare effectively for a negotiation? What issues do you need to discuss beforehand?The essential preparation areas are firstly to ensure that everyone in the team is clear what the objectives of the negotiation are. The objectives include:What is the best we can get?What’s the worst we can get?What is our bottom line?And secondly, to establish the role that each individual is expected to play in achieving those objectives. Namely:Who is responsible for different stages of the negotiation?What special skills/knowledge do individual members of the team have?What do we know about the other team?It is important to discuss strategies beforehand and to decide on the approach the team is going to take which include:What are the main areas of negotiation?What are likely to be the sticking points?What is the best order to discuss these points?What concessions can we give to achieve our main aim?It is also essential to discuss the communicative ways like:how we are going to maintain positive communication,who is taking notes or minutes andwho is going to ask questions and so on.6. Put the following into English1)Please take a look at the itinerary we prepared for you, and let me know if there’s anything inappropriate, please let me know.2)We are holding a banquet here tonight in honor of our friends coming from the other side of the Pacific Ocean.3)I believe that through our joint efforts, our corporation can be satisfactory and successful.4)Let’s come to the point, the purpose of my current visit here is to explore the possibility of doing barter trade with you.5)T he contract will come into force from May 10, you can’t go back on your words then.6)We always fulfill our promise.7)Owing to our old relationship, we hold our offer valid for one other week, after which our price would probably be raised.8)I'll do my best; and please, try your best too.9)Your price is too high. It’s hard for us to accept.10)All our products are high-grade commodities; naturally the prices are different.7. True or false1) T 2) F 3) F 4) T 5) T 6) F (unwise) 7) T 8) T9) F (fluid) 10) T 11) F(round table)12) FNegotiation Skills1. In your opinion, what are the benefits of considering your own and others’ outcomes in negotiation preparation?The benefit of considering the outcomes for ourselves and others gives us an initial sense of 'what' people are looking for.It is far more important to look to the interests of the others. The question to ask is why do people want the outcome they are pursuing. It is easy to think of desirable outcomes in terms of money, which is in many cases what people want.When thinking ahead of time about others’ interests, we are making a series of assumptions. We should use the negotiation process to pursue the fundamental asset of negotiation, which is information. Are the assumptions accurate? If the interests assumed are 'out there', the answers we derive should yield a clearer understanding of the actual interests that motivate the parties and will lead to a successful agreement.2. How to measure a negotiator’s strengths and w eaknesses?In general, measuring a negotiator's strengths and weaknesses can involvea multiplicity of elements, but the most important are the following:1) A negotiator's relative strength is determined by the quality and extent of his preparation. The better one understand his/her interests and the better he/she understands the interests of other parties, the greater the chance he/she will be able to reach an elegant solution which leaves the parties feeling as if each has achieved the major portion of their goals.2) A negotiator's relative strength can be measured by whether people walk away thinking they would be pleased to negotiate with him again. That is to say----if people leave a negotiation thinking they never want to see him/her again, then he/she is a poor negotiator.3) A negotiator needs to understand that different issues should be treatedas of different priorities in different negotiations. Sometimes the relationship is most important; other times creativity is the measure of how well one negotiates. It is always true that good communication is fundamental of a negotiator's strength. A good negotiator makes his points clearly understood by other parties. A better negotiator makes understanding other parties his top priority.multiplicity n. ----the state of being various or manifold多种多样多方面或者多种形式Chapter 5 The Bargaining ProcessCommunication Exercises1. In the business world, everyone is very busy. Business calls are concise and “to the point.” Remember to be positive. Which is the b est expression?1) b 2) a 3) a2. Make proposals about the following:1) I think we should cut the training budget by five per cent.2) I suggest we aim for a two per cent rise in productivity.3) How about going for a meal after work?4)Why don’t w e go to the National Forest Park this year for the companyexcursion?5) I advise you to reduce production costs.6) I propose that we shorten working hours by two and a half hours per week.3. Use the conditional constructions (if…or unless…) to exert pr essure in the following situations.1) I’m afraid we’ll have to cancel the contract unless you reduce your fees.2) We’ll have to choose another supplier if you can’t pay us on time.3) That looks like the end of the negotiation, unless you can make a concession.4) I’m afraid you’ll lose your job unless you work harder.5) If you can’t offer me a better working condition than this, I’ll leave thecompany.6) I’ll accept the new job only if I get a higher pay.7) Unless you order 10,000 pieces of this product immedia tely, you won’tget a quantity discount.4. Once positions have been established in a negotiation, a process of making and responding to proposals usually follows. Which side (the customer or supplier) should start the process? What are the advantages of going first and second?The supplier will usually be expected to start this process the advantage is then given to the customer who doesn’t have t show his hand until he first hears what the supplier is proposing. On the other hand, making a proposal first may set the parameters for discussion and it could be an advantage if you want the negotiation to go in a certain direction.5. What can cause negotiations to fail? How important is it to maintain a positive tone throughout the meeting?Negotiations can fail for a variety of reasons:competitors offer a better deal;problems seem too difficult to solve;personalities clash;negotiating styles clash.Most negotiations will encounter difficult problems. There is a much greater chance that solutions will be found if both parties keep sight of the main objectives and maintain a positive tone.6. Fill in the blanks1).

F 2) T 3) F (positive tone) 4) T 5) T6) F (without comment)7) T 8) F (more ) 9) F (high) 10) TNegotiation Skills1. You are negotiating a major purchase, and the sales agent suggests a ridiculously high price which is far above your anticipated purchase price. How do you address the agent in order to get the best price?(b) and (d)The sales agent is trying to get started on the traditional positional bargaining philosophy of "start high, counter low and end up in the middle." In order to counter their attempts at positional bargaining, we should begin by asking them what the basis for their initial price was. This tactic will draw attention away from the initial price and create a focus on the criteria for determining a fair price. Next, we should suggest a price of our own, prove the offer with appropriate criteria and stick to our offer.2. Do you think it’s a good idea to raise the critical issue early in the negotiation? How would you handle the aggressive position immediately adopted by others?Most negotiators start by identifying the common ground. In other words, the points which both sides agreed on. Then have a firm basis to discuss problem areas. It is important that our team do not show too strong an emotional response to the other party’s aggression. Because they will see this as a weakness.3. How to deal with those who say " Our prices are set, we do not bargain "?Businesses were created to meet a perceived need in the marketplace.There are people who fear that if they negotiate, other parties will take advantage of them. This sort of thinking is the result of the belief that negotiation is a competitive process, and only one side can win.The Internet has created a variety of auction choices; many other companies always guarantee the lowest price. So price competition is far from dead. It is simply a matter of people’s choice. If you want to attempt to bargain for a better deal, don't do business with no-negotiation companies.Chapter 6 Closing the NegotiationCommunication Exercises1.

They need to agree on future follow-up action and, if possible, set a date for the next or future meetings.7. What steps do you go through to close a negotiation effectively?To close a negotiation effectively we should do the following steps:1) Summarizing---summarize issues discussed---confirm objectives attained---state areas where you have yet to reach agreement or where further discussion is needed2) Follow-up action---delegate responsibility for follow-up action and set time-scale---minute or document decisions3) Departing---confirm arrangements for next meeting (if there is to be one)---chairperson thanks participants for coming8.Fill in the blanksunsuccessful, close, maximum, enough, agenda .9.

First of all , the writer points out that there is a mistake about learning. Some young people dislike learning simply because they are educated in the wrong way. Learning is a natural pleasure that should be enjoyed. Then he develops this idea by examples to illustrate the different aspects: learning from books, by travel and trough practice. Learning can expand one’s knowledge over a period of time.2. The chief danger of learning is laziness, sloth, routine, stupidity. It sneaks into people’s mind like wind through the shutters, causing people to slowly give up learning. We should realize that learning is a life-long endeavor, and only by continuous learning can one gain a meaningful and rewarding life.Key to the reading—skill Exercises1.
