Negotiations Skills for Business
My Topic for this project:
My job is to watch the video and record the conversations in text. Work on Monday-Friday, but sometimes my BOSS asks me to do it on weekends with the same pay.
To discuss with my employer the rate of the increase in pay when working on holidays. If the salary increase is not high, I tend to rest.
FINAL PROJECT
For this project, you will carry out and analyze a real world negotiation. Please plan and execute a negotiation of something of personal value to you.
The end result does not have to be successful in order to earn a strong grade. This paper should report on your preparation, tactics used during the negotiation, lessons learned from this experience, and, of course, your negotiation results.
Use discriminating analysis; in other words, look through your facts, determine what is most relevant to convey your knowledge of and your ability to apply course concepts, and then draw summarize and draw conclusions based on this information. What would you do differently next time?
This assignment should not be a transcript of every detail of the negotiation, but rather an analysis that incorporates concepts introduced in class as well as your mastery of the readings.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
- 4-pages (doesn’t include the title page or reference page) double-spaced 12-pt Times Roman font, normal margins
- Solid grammar and organizational writing skills
- Applicable outside research (not counting your text) and appropriate APA documentation of your sources
