--------------------------------
Probably the most crucial technique for successful interest-based negotiations is perspective-taking. This is the most straight-forward way to understand your partner’s interests, and where they’re coming from. And as a result, you will be much more informed and better at solving problems mid-negotiation, or answering their attempts to set an anchor.
Ask diagnostic questions. You can try with the W questions that invite an open response, like What? Why? When? Where? and their non-W cousin, How.
But remember that negotiations are a back-and-forth process, and this entails that you need to provide your partner with knowledge about what you’re after and what your priorities are.
If you disclose information about your party, it will signal that you are approaching these negotiations openly, which will invite the principle of reciprocation to enter play.
Engage in active listening. This allows you to then go and make your own deductions about your counter-party’s interests, even if they are not being completely open with you, and more importantly, you will get a sense of what their preferences are and how they rank.
Make package deals. Package deals are useful for two main things – they allow the negotiating parties to come up with trade-offs between individual issues, and they make reaching an impasse much less likely.
