Primary Task Response
This week, you and your team completed the training sessions on developing the Negotiation Planning Strategy. The chief operations officer (COO) received positive feedback from your team about the direction and content of the training sessions. He has asked to review your completed training outline, and he may include these topics in the company-wide training plan.
Post an outline of your Key Assignment to the Discussion Board as your main post. This should be the Negotiation Strategy Template that you have been preparing throughout the course. You should have the following sections of the template completed:
- Purpose of Negotiation (Week 1)
- Desired Outcome (Week 1)
- Pertinent Information (Week 2)
- Interests, Desires, and Motivations (Week 2)
- Sources of Power (Week 3)
- Walk-Away Alternatives (Week 3)
Your first task is to post your Negotiation Strategy Template to the discussion area so that other students are able to review your plan. Attach your document to the main discussion post, and include any notes you feel are appropriate. The purpose of this assignment is to help improve the quality of the Key Assignment Draft you will complete next week.
