FAQ
What is Negotiation?
We use a broad definition: you are negotiating anytime you are trying to influence someone else in order to help you achieve your goals. Our view is that when you can achieve your goals without anyone else’s permission, participation, resources, or support, you do so. For example, the act of brushing your teeth in the morning does not in itself require negotiation; however, if you share a bathroom with other people you may well have to negotiate with them for access to your toothbrush.
