The influence of Chinese-western Cultural Differences in Business NegotiationABSTRACTIt has been more than 30 years since the policy of reforming and opening was carried out. The international business activities got more and more showing. The results of whether the negotiation achieved or not impacted the foreign trade directly, but the results always depended upon many factors: economic basis, political background, enterprise capacity, providing and competing of the markets. But there was a very important factor behind those factors. It was culture factors. With the economic globalization and the frequent business contacts, cultural differences seem to be very important; otherwise they could cause unnecessary misunderstanding, even affect the result of the businessnegotiations. If you want to succeed in negotiation, you must dig the culture differences.The purpose of writing was to stress the splendid culture factors which are neglected in the past. By excavating the unity and diversity of culture factors, we advanced step by step to evident the great impact of culture factors for international business negotiation. The point innovation was to give specific impact from the specific difference, other paper was not. The ultimate goal of this thesis was to provide the theoretical evidences for those negotiations who pay more attention to the culture factors when they began to negotiate.Key Words:business negotiation, cultural difference, the influence The influence of Chinese-western Cultural Differencesin Business NegotiationCulture is an abstract concept, it refer to all aspects of human life,including belief, art, knowledge, morals, convention, etc. Culture consist of two factors-material culture and mental culture. Science culture and humanism culture form themental culture. And the humanism culture always refer to ethnic culture. The living environment effect human’s behavior unconsc iously from one’s birth even not yet born. The first function of culture is to make man a human being, It is culture that regulates his conduct and prepares him for group life. It teaches him the art of living as per the cultural traits of the group. He takes the food, wears the clothes, goes to school, speaks the language and does so many other little things of day-to-day life which are a part of the conventional norms, mores, laws, customs and morals of the group. The culture of a group plays a major part in the heightening human qualities of its individuals and save them from avoiding participation in the cultural stream.The second important role of culture is to keep social relationship intact so that the group as a whole can maintain and develop the values and ideals of the group through the regulation of behaviors of its members and by satisfying their primary needs and objectives in respect of the necessities and luxuries of life . People learn to behave socially in a group because their behavior is subject to approval or disapproval.Here are some specific effects below, including the political system, thinking mode, different values and belief,language styles, the translation and interpretation.The effect of political environmentThe relationship between the two parties’ counties is the determined factor that whether the negotiating environment is loosed. If the relationship is friendly, the probability of successful negotiation will be bigger, otherwise it’ll be small. The effects of political environment mainly reflect in the ideology and political system. China is a socialist country. Western countries are capitalist states mostly. For the reason of incompatibility of Chinese-western political system, adversarial and discriminatory terms may be written in the contract, which cause a bad cooperation or even a failure in cooperation.The effect of thinking modePeople’s thinking play an important role throughout the business negotiations. The features of Chinese-western thinking differences are obvious: Chinese culture prefer Comprehensive thinking, and emphasize unified and deductive inference; Western culture prefer analytical thinking, emphasize opposite and inductive inference. To a question, Chinese and westerners put forward to different solution.Chinese negotiators focus on working out rules, and then talk about the details. Once the principles have been confirmed, they will keep it and never compromise. However, they are flexible when handling some details. Chinese usually may compromise or promise, finally sign a contract. Western negotiators, especially the Americans, won’t be limited by the frame of rules. They emphasize the whole, not the individuals. They like to start with specific things.Chinese mind the responsibility of the group, authority of individual, that is to say “centralization”; Western mind the power of the group, the responsibility of individuals, that is to say “separat ion of powers”. The number of Chinese members is a lot, but the decision maker is only one. While western negotiators enforce codetermination.In the view of Chinese point, self-respect is more important than negotiation result. Western negotiators notice result which is more relevant to individuals’ profit. Thus, they will try their best to pursue, if they can obtain benefit. Achievement is the way to judge one’s status.The effect of language styleLanguage style:Chinese style seems to be formal that they always usebusiness expressions in the negotiation and be fixed within the framework of preparation beforehand; Western style is humorous that they use daily expressions and are flexible according to the changing situations. On the part of intonation, westerners use passive voice frequently, but they are logical inside; Chinese are habituated to use terms and long sentences.Language strategies:Business negotiation is just like playing chess, you will frequently change your psychology, standpoints and negotiation strategies including language strategies according to the changed and changing situations. The following will be useful when you enter the negotiating room:1. Aggressing as well as defending, try to find your counterpart’s weakness (in expressions, in inside logics) and use your own strength to get the upper hand;2. Change your standpoints and language strategies according to the changing situations;3. be sensitive to the taboos in your counterpart’s culture;4. Your language must serve your purpose, serve to realize your interests; to aggress as well as defend, to arrive atwin-win end.5. Your language must be professional and logical (to resolve the problems) and sometimes humorous (to relax the tense atmosphere or break the stalemate).The effect of Translation and InterpretationThe ability to make oneself understood is essential if any agreement is to be reached. International negotiations often require the use of translators or interpreters to attain this goal. The optimal translator or interpreters will understand both the linguistic and cultural nuances so necessary to communication. Translators or interpreters must also be adept at comprehending the intricacies of everything from body language to seating arrangements. Rarely will a solo negotiator or team have sufficient language skills to operate anywhere in the world. The quality of the translators or interpreters involved will greatly influence the negotiation's outcome. And generally speaking, the translators or interpreters in international business negotiations should:1. Have a large vocabulary of English,2. Be familiar with the business terms in source and target language,3. Understand the lexical, syntactic characteristics ofbusiness English, especially oral English in international business,4. Know about relevant business knowledge,5. Be sensitive to cross-cultural communication,6. Have good interpersonal skills,7. Specialize in using dictionaries, encyclopedia and relevant reference books.The Effect of Different BeliefAs different ideologies developed and combated each other, the basic framework of Chinese civilization was established. And then Confucianism became the foundation stone of Chinese philosophy system. Confucianism's central doctrine is that of the virtue of Ren. What is Ren? Ren is translated variously as goodness, benevolence, humanity and human-heartedness. In short, Ren means affection and love. For more than 2 thousand years it has molded and shaped the civilization of China and exerted a profound influence upon almost one fourth of human race. Just as DR. Sun-Yat-Sen said:” Therefore the old morals of loyalty and piety, affection, and love, faithfulness and righteousness, are superior to those of the foreign countries Let alone that peace and harmony. These high standards of morals are ournational spirit. "Different from China, Christianity plays an important role in western. The English speaking countries are generally considered as Christian countries where many people believe in Christianity. Christianity is the region based on the life and teaching of Jesus Christ. He is the founder of Christianity. According to the doctrine of Christianity, the Trinity is the union of the three forms of God, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ the son of the God, and the holy book of Christianity is the Bible, which consists of the Old Testament and the New Testament. However, the power of the church cannot compare with the past time, it still influence many aspects of people 's daily life. For example, there are a few important festivals in the western is concern with Jesus Christ. Christmas day is a festival in celebration of the birth of the Jesus Christ on Dec.25.Virgin Birth refers to the birth of Christ, which Christians believe to have been caused by God rather than by ordinary sexual union.The effect of different valuesThe concept of Chinese values is often consciously or unconsciously placed in opposition with Western values. Therefore, it is necessary to determine how people defineWestern values. Some have stated that the modern Western value system originated in Victorian England, and describe it as social norms and behaviors common in European people during that time. The core of Western values is individualism. The core of the Chinese value has some relationship with the Confucianism. The ethnic principle of Confucianism is its discovery of the ultimate in the moral character of human relationships in which Confucius offered the solution for the ills and evils of his days.That is the well-known Five Relationships: ruler-minister, father-son, husband-wife, elder-younger brother andfriend-friend. This was explained as “There should be affection between father and son , righteous sense of duty between ruler and minister, division of function between man and wife, stratification between old and young, and good faith between friends.” During the more than two thousand years of the feudal period, the ruling class arrange every thing by this relationships, and then formed a class society. In this kind of society, a minister owes loyalty to his ruler, and a child filial respect to his parent. The result is the humanity is neglected and people have no equality. Different from China, in the Renaissance period of England, people beganto emphasize the dignity of human beings and the importance of the present life, they voiced their beliefs that man did not only have the right to enjoy the beauty of their life, but also have the ability to perfect themselves and perform wonders. This is the rudiment of Humanism. People became to respect the humanity from then on. And then develop into the ideas of what we always said freedom, democracy. Today, take Americans for instance; the top personal values were self-reliance, hard work, and a tie between achieving success in life, personal achievement, and helping others. Hard work, respect for learning, honesty, and self-reliance were most valued among Chinese people. In terms of social values, the top six for Americans were freedom of expression, personal freedom, rights of the individual, open debate; thinking for oneself, and official accountability. The top six social values for Asian people were maintenance of an orderly society, harmony, accountability of public officials, openness to new ideas, freedom of expression, and respect for authority. This study finds that unlike Americans, East Asians are generally more respectful of authority and prize an orderly society, however in concurrence with the West, Asians honor new ideas, officialaccountability, and free expression.Subject to the different values, Chinese negotiators think that the process of negotiation is the process of establishing interpersonal relation. The purpose of negotiating is to build a long-term business cooperative relation. Entering into a contract is the start of mutual beneficial cooperation. But western negotiators advocate independent thinking and judgment. They emphasize the redistribution of profit. It’s persuasive to show one’ view directly while Chinese present their ideas more implicit in case of hurting other s’self-respect. The westerners maintain egalitarian value. They stand fair competition, reasonable and open principles, and strive to distribute interest equally. Westerners usually adopt quotation database in introducing specific terms. In the relationship between the buyers and sellers, they usually regard parties as equal, and be fair in the division of profit.Different culture has different timing. American seek interest an speed, which form American’s modern commercial style in a sweeping manner. But Chinese timing is circuitous, they take a long view of the feasibility of issues, they may be thoughtful to the integrity of issues in a long run. So different negotiating styles cause different result, onlyknow yourself as well as the enemy, you can use the differences of values to occupy initiative position in negotiation.SummaryIt’s direct and wide that culture effect on negotiation. With people knowing the culture factors deeply, they found the impact of culture factors for business negotiation beyond the impact of other factors. If you wanted to succeed in negotiation, you must dig the culture differences, cross it, admire it, bridge it. In the field of culture, Marxism in China was a right choice by Chinese under the circumstance of collision of Chinese-western culture for hundreds years. When we confronted the combination of world civilization and many cultures, we should step to know Marxism in China. In this way, we can merge the Chinese-western culture differences, so the culture can serve the economy, serve the trade an serve the international business negotiation. The international business negotiation was a kind of cultural collision and accommodation. In the trend of globalization, all the foreign enterprises should combine the cultural sensitive with the negotiation skill then they can achieve their objectives of negotiation victory.This article introduce the effect of culture difference on business negotiation from two points: the specific culture difference impacting the specific negotiation steps and international business negotiation making a conversion from the redistribution of economic benefit to the joint enjoyment of spirit culture. The topic of this article is not the survey of negotiating skills or negotiating strategies, but the exploration of cultural differences which effect on negotiation.With international trade activities increasing, only if you are able to be familiar with the culture differences deeply, admire others’ culture and put yourself on others’ shoes can you facilitate a successful negotiation.Reference:[1] 王滕宁.Impact of the culture difference between China and the West on business negotiation. 山东机械,2004年[2]曹菱.《商务英语谈判》,外语教学与研究出版社,2004[3] 赵伟君.中西文化冲突与我国跨文化商务谈判对策.商业研究,2002[4]尹小莹. 外贸英语函电。

【论文】商务英语谈判中的语言策略

AbstractAs globalization of world economy gains momentum, business negotiations have become more and more important nowadays. And in business negotiation process, language strategies play very important role in determining the outcome of the negotiation.Language users use different linguistic forms strategically to achieve different communicative intentions. Negotiators use pragmatic strategies to achieve their communicative intentions. While many scholars abroad have made a study of the strategies in business negotiation from a managerial view, which seems to be lacking in language data as evidence, most of the Chinese scholars have paid more attention to the pragmatic strategies such as strategies of politeness, humor, and euphemism applied in international business negotiations from different perspectives. Therefore, application of the pragmatic strategies can only be described as means of getting as much profit as possible under a competitive win-win negotiation situation.This paper is composed of four chapters. In the first chapter, I make a brief introduction to the negotiation and the business negotiation tactics. The second chapter is the most important chapter in the whole paper which is called verbal strategies. It explains language tactics from three periods, the beginning period, the negotiation period and the ending period. To aim at different period’s functions in negotiation, I will introduce different language tactics. Besides verbal strategies, non-verbal strategies also play a crucial role in negotiation. The third chapter, I will introduce the non-verbal strategies from body language, paralanguage, silence and etc. The last chapter is the conclusion part. I made an analysis in selecting a language during the negotiation.Not all the verbal pragmatic strategies can be applied in a business negotiation under a win-win situation. Some verbal pragmatic strategies such as politeness, humorand euphemism can be applied successfully and effectively under win-win negotiation situations。

商务英语谈判技巧论文篇一:商务英语谈判论文Discuss the Applications of the PIOC Principles inCollaborativeNegotiation BrieflyThere are many negotiations in the world, but the business negotiations take the mostly dominant role. In this situation, the final purpose of each side of the negotiating parties is attempted to meet the other’s interest as well as their own. There are many kinds of negotiations such as competitive style, accommodative style, collaborative style, vengeful style, compromising style, etc. and most commercial negotiations tend to collaborative style, because it is a win-win negotiation. There are four principles which are People, Interest, Options, andCriteria. It is indispensable when we are going to talk about the collaborative negotiation owing to the applications they exert.People PrinciplePeople Principle requires separating the people from the problem. Business is business, taking too many people emotions into negotiation is harmful. Especially in collaborative negotiations, good master of People Principle need follow the three techniques.Establish an accurate perception. Cultivate appropriate emotion. Strive for better communication.Interest PrincipleInterest principle requires focusing on interests, not positions . A position is what you say you want or must have. An interest is why you want what you want. Taking much attention to position will greatly reduce the interest, negotiators need to distinguish between interests and positionsand focus on interests not positions. There are two methods negotiators should obey. Identify the self-interests. Discuss interests with the other party.There is an example. Jim takes a fancy to a second-hand car which has good quality in all aspects except the high price. When he comes to the host’s officer to negotiate aiming to cut down the price, he finds the host is the boss of the company and the office is luxurious. He becomes inexplicable nervous. Having a seat for a while, the host is busy with telephone talking about a cooperative projects amount of up to millions of money. The tension and fear in the hearts of Jim are further broadened. He sits on pins and needles for a long time but the host seems not to hang up the phone and seems to ignore the existence of Jim. A strong anger begin to spread in Jim’s mind, so he deliberately makes some sound and thehost finally hang up the phone and apologize to , what the host said next shames Jim. The host say “my time is tight, aren’t you tell me you come here to cut down the price”Jim had hoped to get the car at the half price, but now he is completely suppressed by the momentum of the host. Anger becomes fear which affects Jim’s negotiating ability. He affirms the host who has the ability to do big business won’t waste time to negotiate. In order to make him leave the uneasy place and finish the embarrassing negotiation as soon as possible, Jim accepts original price. Although Jim repents himself but it’s late.In this case, Jim disobeys the People Principle. He takes emotions to the negotiation, nervous, fear and inferiority. In his mind,he and the host are not in the same level which makes him unable to negotiate with the host. Jim should calmdown and get the host to participate in the mutual activities, and Jim’s emotions make the host stick to his price. Jim even not speaks out his purpose which is silly. Jim disobeysInterest Principle. He completely not focuses on his own interests but the host’s should explore and recognize the interests of the host and stand in his way. This should be a good collaborative negotiation. But owing to the deficiency of negotiation Jim lacks, the host takes advantages from Jim.Options PrincipleOptions Principle requires inventing options for mutual gains. There are often obstacles during the negotiations which needs people develop multiple solution options to reach an agreement. The ability to invent options is one of the most useful assets a negotiator can have and negotiator should avoiding the followed thinking, premature judgement, searching for thesingle answer, the assumption of a fixed pie a nd thinking that “solving their problem is their problem”.Hereare methods negotiators should obey. Separate the act of inventing options from the act of judging them. Develop as many options as possible before choosing one. Search for mutual gains.Criteria PrincipleCriteria Principle requires insisting on using objective options become available, negotiating parties need to decide which one suits both sides best. The guidelines for objective criteria are Independence of wills of all parties. Legitimate and practical. Acceptance to all parties. In a word, focus on objective criteria firmly and flexibly.There is an example. A Chinese negotiating group goes to a Middle East country to negotiate a project contract. During gossip, a Chinese memberdiscusses the Islam without intention which arise the unhappy of the other side. When come to the substantive issues, the opposite side shows no sign of conceding, and they seem to intend to withdraw negotiation. At the time, the Chinese team hurries to seek options to solute the problems. Frist, they apologize to the Islamic workers sincerely. Then the Chinese makes decisionto offer them 5%account of the total amount. If they don’t accept theChineseproposes introduce another company to negotiate the contract. Finally, the Islam accept apologize and accept the contract, but the Chinese should comply with rules about Islam. Last, the two teams approach consensus.In this case, when problems occur, the Chinese not shrinkback but struggle to find solutions, and they offer two options for the Islam to choose. Last, the two groupsreach agreement and take the Islam as criteria. This is a successful collaborative negotiation which applies the Interest Principle and Criteria Principle correctly. Though the Chinese give a 5% discount, but which accelerates the negotiation reached an agreement quickly.The correct application of PIOC Principles in collaborative negotiations is a powerful tool to crack the tough nuts in negotiations, and reach a consensus promptly. Principled negotiations make the win-win maximum benefit.篇二:商务英语谈判论文答卷封面注意事项(Notes)1.考生需按题签将上述有关项目填写清楚2.字迹要清楚,保持卷面清洁。

商务英语毕业论文范文篇一[摘要] 文章探讨商务谈判人员的合作与竞争、人格决定作用、中西谈判理论思想的关系等三个理念。

作者认为这些理念是决定谈判成败的关键。

[关键词] 商务谈判科学理念理念是人脑中的高位意识形态,是指导和影响人们行为的基础观念,理念的形成是由人的知识、经验、思维方式等因素的影响决定的,而理念一旦形成,又对人们的行为产生指导和影响。

商务谈判是商业职场人员的一种日常工作,也是他们在职业生涯中的一种创造性劳动,自然也受到理念的影响。

本文探讨的商务谈判的科学理念问题,并不是要描述商务谈判人员的各种谈判理念,强调的是商务谈判人员应树立正确的、科学的理念。

理念一:商务谈判中合作比竞争更重要1.合作是商务谈判中矛盾的主要方面我们处在一个利益纷争的时代。

在每个涉及利益的领域平等谈判、公平博弈,最终达成妥协,其结果便是各方可以接受和获得的最大利益。

在诸多领域,没有博弈,就没有程序正义,就没有效率的均衡,就没有利益的增进。

从这个角度看,商务谈判中似乎竞争更甚于合作。

但竞争只是谈判中矛盾的一个方面,并不是矛盾的主要方面。

谈判中矛盾的主要方面应该是合作。

现代博弈论把博弈分为合作博弈与非合作博弈两大类型。

如果一个博弈中的参与者能够联合,达成一个具有约束力的协议,并且这种协议是可以强制执行的,则为合作博弈;如果不存在这样一个协议,博弈中的每个参与者都是独立地从个人理性出发,选择那些使自己的利益最大化行为或者对策,则为非合作博弈。

因为谈判只有通过合作的博弈才能有双赢的结果。

有谈判学家认为,谈判是否成功,不是取决于所要解决的问题是对抗性的还是非对抗性的,而是取决于:(1)该问题是否可以通过谈判解决;(2)谈判者是否不仅乐于“争”和“取”,而且愿意做出条件的交换和相应的妥协;(3)谈判者是否能在一定程度上相互信任。

一、商务英语课程特点与教学现状Hutchinson和Waters认为商务英语是专门用途英语中的一个分支,是一门以语言学为主导、吸收了一切与商业相关的领域的学科研究方法的综合陛学科,基本上属于应用语言学。

从语言的角度看,商务英语是商务环境中应用的英语,但从内容而言,商务英语叉不能脱离商务。

其特点是:(1)以目的为导向;(2)以自我学习为中心;(3)真实语料2]。

例如,BEC商务英语口试主要考查考生商务交往过程中运用英文的能力。

商务交往主要包括建立和保持商务联络、谈论工作、制定计划与安排工作等,目的性和实用性较强。

20xx年高等教育出版社出版的《体验商务英语》还设置了真实的案例分析。

改革开放后,中国众多高校纷纷开设“经贸英语”、“商贸英语”、“商务英语”以及“外贸英语”等课程,培养既通晓外语又精通国际商务的复合型人才。

有的院校如上海对外贸易大学还开设了相关的研究生课程。

另外,出版了一系列商务英语教材,例如英国剑桥大学出版社出版的级商务英语教材,与其相关的商务英语考试和培训已获得了广泛的关注和肯定。

但是,我国多数讲授商务英语的英语教师由于受专业知识的限制,往往用讲授基础英语的方法进行商务英语教学,以词汇和语法教学为主;而多数讲授商务英语的商务专业课教师由于缺乏语言教学的经验,教学中以翻译为主。

有关商务英语论文范文一:商务英语国际贸易论文一、商务英语在国际贸易谈判中存在的问题不同国家的国家文化和社会发展氛围的不同,对于企业文化的形成也具有十分重要的影响。

中国的国家制度经过了长期的封建统治、短期的半殖民地半封建社会、资本主义、最终到现今的共产主义,因此在意识形态上更加信奉共产主义理论,因此在企业文化中更加讲究团结,而中国的“和”字优良传统源远流长,因此在中国的企业文化之中更加讲究的是一种和睦团结的文化氛围。

但是美国和日本等国家在历史发展中挫折少,国家的政治制度也没有过很大的更替,因此在实际的企业发展中更加信奉资本主义市场的运作模式和“物竞天择、适者生存”的进化论理论,因此在企业文化中更加讲究个人英雄主义和利益至上的原则,这样就使得贸易双方在谈判中很难进行顺畅的沟通,进而加大了国际贸易谈判的难度。

二、国际贸易谈判中商务英语的使用对策1、尊重语言文化差异,贯彻“求同存异”的方针政策“求同存异”是新中国建立初期,周恩来在万隆会议上提出了为了解决各国之间的政治和经济等矛盾而提出的团结性方针,其在国际贸易谈判中也是同样适用的。

因此在与国外企业在进行国际贸易谈判之前需要针对其国家的历史文化和语言使用上进行了解,进而尊重其文化与语言差异,在实际的谈判中通过翻译能力和翻译技巧来实现双方文化与语言差异的兼顾,进而降低交流矛盾。

但是在国际贸易谈判之中难免会出现直译的情况,这就需要翻译人员掌握商务英语翻译技巧,进而通过更加委婉的方式来进行表达,进而缓解谈判气氛,保证国际贸易谈判的成功和顺利。

例如,在英语的商务谈判中,在词汇的选择更加注重简洁性,进而避免繁复模糊性的词汇,保证词汇使用的间接性,同时还要避免使用英语方言等,同时还要避免使用具有一定的情感色彩的词汇,因为这样会让对方感到吹嘘,令人反感。

2、重视谈判语言中句型的选择,进而营造“实事求是”的谈判氛围在国际贸易谈判中,情感性的词汇和句型的使用会使得谈判对方感到其虚假,可能产生不信任的情绪,进而影响总体的谈判效果,因此在谈判中必须贯彻“实事求是”的方针。

商务英语谈判中的语用策略分析论文

商务英语谈判中的语用策略分析论文国际贸易中,商务谈判是企业间商务交往的重要途径,商务谈判能否顺利推进将直接关系到交易的顺利完成。

其实商务谈判并不是人们单纯认为的讲话,懂一些谈判技巧就可以,其实国际贸易商务英语谈判还需要一定的商务英语专业术语、贸易专业知识以及文化差异等,能够按照一定的语用原那么,促使商务英语谈判的顺利、高效实现。

商务英语自身具有的一定的客观性、逻辑性,谈判人员应根据不同的情况,因时制宜,使用不同的语用策略,保证商务谈判的成功。

经济全球化的趋势逐渐加强,世界各国间的交流沟通日渐频繁,商务谈判是国际贸易事务中十分重要的内容,发挥着至关重要的作用,与贸易交往成败有着密切的关系。

商务谈判就是为了满足经济效益,不同利益主体迎合对方的需要,通过合作、协商等对商机活动进展确定。

因此,在商务英语谈判的过程中,需要遵循一定的语用原那么,以将由于语用造成的误会降到最低。

1.合作原那么。

合作原那么是谈判双方为了实现共同的谈话目的,而共同遵守的原那么。

主要有关系、数量、质量以及方式等原那么。

关系原那么就是谈话的内容要与主题相一致,不能偏离。

数量原那么就是说话人提供的信息不能超出需要的范围。

质量原那么就是说话的内容要真实、可靠,并且具有一定的严谨性。

方式原那么就是说话者的语言要简练,防止出现歧义。

科学的运用这些原那么,商务谈判双方的话语就会防止出现逻辑的现象,使谈判能够高效推进,从而实现谈判目的。

商务英语谈判中,双方需要配合,按照一定的合作准那么进展沟通,实现共同目标。

2.礼貌原那么。

在日常生活交往中,礼貌原那么是根本性的原那么,也是商务英语谈判过程中能够重要的语用原那么,主要分为同情、筹划、大方、谦和、表扬、赞同等原那么。

国际商务谈判论文英文篇一:商务谈判论文英语The influence of Chinese-westernCultural Differences in Business NegotiationABSTRACTIt has been more than 30 years since the policy of reforming and opening was carried out. The international business activities got more and more showing. The results of whether the negotiation achieved or not impacted the foreign trade directly, but the results always depended upon many factors: economic basis, political background, enterprise capacity, providing and competing of the markets. But there was a very important factor behind those factors. It was culture factors. With the economic globalization and the frequent business contacts, cultural differences seem to be very important; otherwise they could cause unnecessary misunderstanding, even affect the result of the businessnegotiations. If you want to succeed in negotiation, you must dig the culture differences.The purpose of writing was to stress the splendid culture factorswhich are neglected in the past. By excavating the unity and diversity of culture factors, we advanced step by step to evident the great impact of culture factors for international business negotiation. The pointinnovation was to give specific impact from the specific difference, other paper was not. The ultimate goal of this thesis was to provide thetheoretical evidences for those negotiations who pay more attention to the culture factors when they began to negotiate. Key Words:business negotiation, cultural difference, the influenceThe influence of Chinese-western Cultural Differencesin Business NegotiationCulture is an abstract concept, it refer to all aspects of human life, including belief, art, knowledge, morals, convention, etc. Culture consist of two factors-material culture and mental culture. Science culture and humanism culture form the mental culture. And the humanism culturealways refer to ethnic culture. The living environment effect human’s behavior unconsciously from one’s birth even not yet born. The first function of culture is to make man a human being, It is culture that regulates his conduct and prepares him for group life. It teaches him the art of living as per the cultural traits of the group. He takes the food, wears the clothes, goes to school, speaks the language and does so manyother little things of day-to-day life which are a part of the conventional norms, mores, laws, customs and morals of the group. The culture of a group plays a major part in the heightening human qualities of its individuals and save them from avoiding participation in the cultural stream.The second important role of culture is to keep social relationship intact so that the group as a whole can maintain and develop the values and ideals of the group through the regulation of behaviors of its members and by satisfying their primary needs and objectives in respect of the necessities and luxuries of life . People learn to behave socially in a group because their behavior is subject to approval or disapproval.Here are some specific effects below, including thepolitical system, thinking mode, different values and belief, language styles, the translation and interpretation.The effect of political environmentThe relationship between the two parties’counties is the determined factor that whether the negotiating environment is loosed. If therelationship is friendly, the probability of successful negotiation will be bigger, otherwise it’ll be small. The effects of political environment mainly reflect in the ideology and political system. China is a socialist country. Western countries are capitalist states mostly. For the reason of incompatibility of Chinese-western political system, adversarial anddiscriminatory terms may be written in the contract, which cause a bad cooperation or even a failure in cooperation.The effect of thinking modePeople’s thinking play an important role throughout the business negotiations. The features of Chinese-western thinking differences are obvious: Chinese culture prefer Comprehensive thinking, and emphasize unified and deductive inference; Western culture prefer analyticalthinking, emphasize opposite and inductive inference. T o a question, Chinese and westerners put forward to different solution.Chinese negotiators focus on working out rules, and then talk about the details. Once the principles have been confirmed, they will keep it and never compromise. However, they are flexible when handling some details. Chinese usually may compromise or promise, finally sign a contract. Western negotiators, especially the Americans, won’t be limited by the frame of rules. They emphasize the whole, not the individuals. They like to start with specific things.Chinese mind the responsibility of the group, authority of individual, that is to say “centralization”; Western mind the power of the group, the responsibility of individuals, that is to say “separation of powers”. The number of Chinese members is a lot, but the decision(转自: 蓬勃范文网:国际商务谈判论文英文) maker is only one. While western negotiators enforce codetermination.In the view of Chinese point, self-respect is more important thannegotiation result. Western negotiators notice result which is morerelevant to individuals’profit. Thus, they will try their best to pursue, if they can obtain benefit. Achievement is the way to judge one’s status.The effect of language styleLanguage style:Chinese style seems to be formal that they always use business expressions in the negotiation and be fixed within the framework of preparation beforehand; Western style is humorous that they use daily expressions and are flexible according to the changing situations. On the part of intonation, westerners use passive voice frequently, but they are logical inside; Chinese are habituated to use terms and long sentences.Language strategies:Business negotiation is just like playing chess, you will frequently change your psychology, standpoints and negotiation strategies including language strategies according to the changed and changing situations. The following will be useful when you enter the negotiating room:1. Aggressing as well as defending, try to find yourcounterpart’s weakness (in expressions, in inside logics) and use your own strength to get the upper hand;2. Change your standpoints and language strategies according to the changing situations;3. be sensitive to the taboos in your counterpart’s culture; 篇二:商务谈判英文版期末论文之谈判气氛Atmosphere, the key point to make a deal谈判氛围,达成交易的重要因素姓名:学号:班级:Atmosphere ,the key point to make a deal谈判气氛,达成交易的重要因素Negotiating atmosphere generally take shape during the short time of negotiation's beginning. Different negotiating atmosphere can cause different results, which decides whether each party of the negotiation can achieve their aim or not ultimately. And every negotiation has its special atmosphere which can be realized by negotiators clearly. Generally speaking, there are several types about negotiating atmosphere:I. Positive negotiating atmosphereUnder the heated, active, and friendly atmosphere, both party of the negotiation hold a sincere attitude and treat the other side appropriately. The negotiators wear the proper business attire and presenting themselves in a professional way, looking at the opponents with gentle eyes. In addition to these, they are both passionate and confident about the success of the negotiation and regard it as a symbol of friendship. There is no doubt that this kind of atmosphere contributes to the development of the negotiation. And under this circumstance, it will be easy for both party to maximize the interest.II. Serious negotiating atmosphereWhen both parties are trapped in this kind of atmosphere, they must not meet the other party for the first party, and they are not therookie any more, instead, they are in a special position and be restrained by some condition. As a matter of fact, they seems not so passionate and take back their hands after hand-shaking, and do not communicate with each other when having tea or smoking. They looking at the other side sharply and only a flash of smile. Beside that, they often keep calm and sober, and are in a condition of bewaring ofothers. This kind of situation often is not benefit to form good results.III. T ense negotiating atmosphereUnder the offish, opposite, and tense negotiating atmosphere, both party of the negotiation seem unconcerned and to have eye-contact. They attempt to overwhelm the other side through attire and diction. furthermore, they are talking with the opponent with a satiric tone at times accompanied by obvious precautions and distrust. And both of the parties are trapped in a opposite mind, the whole opening situation shows that it seems like on the verge of breaking out a fight. In total, this kind of situation covers shadow on the whole opening situation, and it mostly occurs under the opposite circumstances such as in the court for mediation. Of curse, this kind of atmosphere can not promote the negotiation to be a better development.IV. Persistent negotiating atmosphereThere are many kings of persistent and intermittent negotiation.Under the relaxed, slowly, and everlasting negotiating atmosphere, each party's negotiators have already feel tired, and they enter into the meeting room slowly and seemdisheveled with lassitude, with facial expression numb and attention unfocused, which expresses a indifferent attitude. They show no confidence to the negotiating aims and pay little attention to the speech, even rise a question with contemptuous attitude. As a matter of fact, both parties have to change the topics and keep themselves in a persistent atmosphere. Obviously, this kind of atmosphere hardly to catch their point and keep the negotiation from breaking reluctantly.Different negotiating atmosphere have different influences on the business negotiation. First of all, it can affect the direction of the negotiation's development, one kind of atmosphere can push the negotiation into a certain direction insensibly. Next, it can affect the negotiator's mentality, mood and feeling, thereby, it can bring some accordingly reaction, and if we fail to adjust and change it, this kind of atmosphere will be strengthened and influence the results of the negotiation.T otally speaking, heated, active, friendly and constructive atmosphere have the features of sincerity, cooperation, relaxation and conscientiousness. Sincerity means the eager willing to make a deal with your customers and the sincerityof concluding the transaction. Cooperation means to coordinate the other and support them based onachieving the our own goal. Relaxation means both parties of the negotiation are all under the genuine, harmonious and smooth atmosphere. Conscientiousness means to make the negotiation goes well responsibly and seriously and spare no efforts to make a deal.The key point to create negotiating atmosphere depends on the negotiators' methods and the attitudes they hold when they get touch with each other immediately. Experienced negotiators often adopt a friendly and passionate attitude to create negotiating atmosphere, or greet each other politely and talking with the other forwardly. In addition to these, hin or her can also make a passionate introduction about their first meeting or talk about the old days and so on. Those ways are much better than simple greetings.So according the details i have mentioned above, it's not hard to see that negotiating atmosphere plays a vital role in promoting the success of the negotiation, even can decides whether te deal can be made or not. Creating a better atmosphere will give us a bigger possibility to push the dealto be done.篇三:《商务谈判中英语的重要性》商务英语专业学生毕业设计(论文)手册学校_____无锡旅游商贸高等职业技术学校___ 班级____ __________ 学号__________学生_____ _______________ 指导教师_____ ______________1、毕业设计(论文)任务书专业____商务英语_____班级___ _____学生姓名____ ______ 一、论文选题:_______《商务谈判中英语的重要性》____________ 二、主要参考资料:1.薛正花,《浅谈商务英语在国际商务谈判中的运用》,《商场现代化》,2010年16期;2.张景伟,《国际贸易谈判中商务英语的应用策略》,《期刊》,2009年12月;3.毛帆陵,《浅论商务谈判中语用技巧的重要性及其运用》,《科技信息》,2011年20期;4.初胜华,《商务英语谈判中模糊限制语的语用功能及策略》,《商场现代化》,2008年8期;5.吕晓轩,《探析商务谈判英语的语言策略》,《经济研究导刊》,2011年23期;6.王晨倩,《模糊语在商务英语中的语用功能与策略分析》,《法制与社会》,2008年18期。

Regional differences between different geographical areas due to the geographical environment, the level of economic development and traditional customs differences, people often have different language, life style and interests. And these will affect their behavior. Second is the ethnic differences, it is refers to the different ethnic groups in the development of long time, which formed their language, customs and habit. Third is Political difference, difference in Political is due to the different political system and policy on every country, it’s uniform standard the behavior of people, so people in different countries have differences in the political idea .And the economic difference must not be ignored ,it is due to the economic factors of cultural differences a reflection. For example, the life of people in western developed countries is rich, the education level is high, but in the third world, people are far more concerned with food and clothing problems. In addition, religious differences is also very important on International Business negotiations.Culture difference have broad and deep influence on International Business negotiations, different culture naturally will be divided into different groups of people, the region belong to the difference groups have different cultural groups that tendency to alienate each other.

The work include understand negotiation background and generate strategy of concede. All of these preparations must be considered possible cultural differences. For example, thelayout aspects of the cultural difference to cooperation may have a little influence. In the hierarchy is heavy culture, if the room arrangement is not appropriate, more informal, may cause each other's upset or even angry.Second, in the process of negotiations we should handle the cultural differences correctly .For example the selection of language use on the negotiations is based on the different culture, in the western countries, we must take export-oriented communication,as far as possible with simple, clear and frank expression of their thoughts. Secondly, the way in the negotiations also should be pay more attention. For example, in the negotiations between the United States and China, As the Chinese people's mode of thinking is the overall orientation, and the American people affected by analysis the influence of the thinking mode, they pay more attention to the logical relationship between the things. Therefore, we often solve the problems step by step, and the final agreement is a series of small agreement combined.The last we should do is do subsequent communication about cultural differences well afternegotiations. In some eastern culture countries, such as Japan, they think it is very important to keep in touch with customers after negotiations.The above analysis the cultural differences and the influence of international business negotiation, any negotiator international business negotiations should pay much attention for it. Cultural differences is objective existence, the attitude of the individual or group to decide sorting by the pillow to provide.商务英语谈判论文(二)有关商务英语谈判中存在问题的几点探讨摘要:随着我国经济的飞速发展,外贸成为我国国民经济的重要支柱之一。

关键词:文化,文化差异,商务谈判,影响AbstractThe business negotiations under different cultural conditions come to cross- cultural negotiations. With the economic globalization and the frequent business contacts, cultural differences seem to be very important; otherwise they could cause unnecessary misunderstanding, even affect the result of the business negotiations. This means it is very important to know the different culture in different countries and the ways to avoid the culture conflicts in the international business negotiations. The article commences from the types of culture differences, then it explains the impacts of these culture differences on international business negotiation and finally it analyzes how to deal with the problem of the cultural differences correctly in negotiation process. Such a standpoint is emphasized: In the business negotiations between different countries,negotiators should accept the other party’s culture, and try to make him be accepted; then make a correct evaluation with the help of valid communication and discover their real benefits between them. Besides, we should know clearly and try to accept the culture differences as possible as we can. It is very important for the success of culture negotiations.Key words: Culture, Clturaltal differences,Business negotitation,ImpactIntroductionAlong with the advancement globalization and China’s WTO entry, business enterprises in China have to face more and more business negotiations with foreign enterprises, especially with American enterprises. In these negotiations, Chinese negotiators sometimes feel uncomfortable, puzzled, lost, irritated and the alike, because of unfamiliar custom and behaviors demonstrated by American negotiators. Meanwhile, American negotiators confront the same situation. Cult rural differences between China and west countries could cause many problems. Therefore, understanding cultural differences and overcoming them is crucial in international business negotiations.Although the definition of culture is numerous and vague, it is commonly Recognized that culture is a shared system of symbols, beliefs, values, attitudes and expectations. Culture is a major determinant in business negotiation. So have a clear picture of culture differences if of great significance.Chapter One Cultural DifferencesThe east countries and west countries have produced different cultures on the different continents. Among the different cultures, value views, negotiating style and thinking model appear more obvious.1.1 The Definition of CultureCulture is a national system of specific concepts and values. These concepts become people’s behavior during their life and work. As early as 1952, Kroeber and Kluckhohn listed 164 definitions of culture that they found in the anthropology literature. Of course, many new definitions have appeared since then. For example, some scholars gave such definition that culture is an integrated system of learned behavior patterns which are characteristic of the members of a society and not the result of biological inheritance. In the thesis, culture refers to the knowledge, beliefs, arts, laws, morals, customs, habits, and capabilities acquired by individuals who interact in a specific area of society.1.2 Causes of Cultural DifferencesThe impacts of regional differences, ethnic differences, political differences, economic differences, religious differences and value differences on people’s life are embodied in the catering, clothing, housing, holidays, rituals and other material and cultural life in all aspects. These result in cultural differences in different countries and regions.1.2.1 Regional DifferencesRegional differences refer to that people in different geographical regions often have different languages, life styles and hobbies because of the differences of geographical environments, levels of economic development and traditions, which would affect their behavior and habits. For example, western countries pay more attention to Christmas, while the regions have no snow, such as some African countries near the equator, where people have no idea of Christmas. The reason is that the best decoration to Christmas is snow, but people nearthe equator are not familiar with the snow which never falls on there.1.2.2 Ethnic DifferencesEthnic differences refer to that different ethnic groups in the process of long-term development form its own languages, customs, habits and hobbies. They have their own characteristics in their diet, clothing, housing, holidays, rituals and other material and cultural life.1.2.3 Political DifferencesPolitical differences mean that policies and regulations of the political system standardize the behavior of the people’s role so that people under different political system have different political concepts. Take America and France for example: the power of American president is strictly limited by the Constitution and the other two authorities---Congress and Supreme Court. While France has to expand their president’s power due to their own conditions.1 .2.4 Economic DifferencesEconomic difference is a reflection of the cultural differences due to economic factors. For example, people in the western developed countries have the rich life, and receive the high education so that they pay more attention to the quality of life, and they have good safety awareness. But in the Third World, especially the developing countries, people are more concerned with the problem of food and clothing. So this is reflected in cultural differences.1.2.5 Religious DifferencesReligion is a historical product with human beings developing into a certain stage. There are three main religions in the world: Christianity, Buddhism and Islam. Christian (Protestant)is predominant in northern Europe, North America and Australia; Christian (Catholic) is predominant in Western Europe and South American countries. Islam largely scope of the Middle East and North Africa. Many people in Asia regions believe in Buddhism. Different religions have different cultural trends and precepts, which affect the way that people understand things, conduct and values.1.2.6 Value DifferencesValue concepts mean people’s evaluation criteria to human being’s internal world. It contains time value, wealth value, the attitude toward life and risk. To the same problems, different people in different societies have different views or even diametrically opposite views. For example, parents in western countries tend to cultivate children to be independent. They encourage their children to deal with their personal things by themselves. Parents in eastern countries, however, always spoil their children. They always help their children finish some things which the children have the ability to cope with by themselves.This causes their dependence on their parents even when they grow up. This shows that different countries share different values.1.2.7 Law and Ethics DifferencesLaw and ethics is an integrated system, but sometimes they are contradictive in business negotiation. Western people like to deal with things according to laws. They usually go to negotiate with accompaniment of their lawyers. On the contrary, eastern people pay more attention to ethics rather than laws. In their eyes, business ethics refers to the measurement of business behavior based on standards of right or wrong, rather than relying entirely on principles of accounting, management or laws.。

In the realm of business, negotiation is an art that requires a blend of strategic thinking, interpersonal skills, and a deep understanding of the market dynamics. My experience in a simulated business negotiation during a school project has been a testament to the complexities and nuances of this process.The project was designed to mimic a reallife scenario where two companies were in talks to form a strategic partnership. Our team represented one of the companies, and we were tasked with negotiating the terms of the partnership. The stakes were high, as the outcome would determine the success of our company in the competitive market.Before we could even begin the negotiation, we had to conduct extensive research on the industry, our companys strengths and weaknesses, and the potential partners position. This phase was crucial, as it provided us with the necessary insights to formulate our negotiation strategy. We delved into market trends, analyzed competitors, and even scrutinized the financial health of the potential partner.Armed with this knowledge, we set our objectives. We wanted to ensure that the partnership would bring mutual benefits, but we also had to be mindful of protecting our companys interests. This meant setting clear boundaries on what we were willing to concede and what was nonnegotiable.The actual negotiation process was intense. It was a dance of words, where every statement had to be carefully crafted to convey our stance withoutalienating the other party. We started with an opening offer that was slightly better than what we actually wanted, knowing that the other side would likely counter with a more favorable proposal for them.Throughout the negotiation, we maintained a calm demeanor, even when faced with aggressive tactics from the opposing team. We listened attentively to their concerns and responded with wellreasoned arguments. It was important to show empathy and understanding, but also to stand firm on our core demands.One of the most challenging aspects of the negotiation was managing our teams internal dynamics. We had to ensure that everyones voice was heard and that decisions were made collectively. This required effective communication and a strong sense of teamwork.The negotiation culminated in a final agreement that was satisfactory to both parties. We had managed to secure a deal that would strengthen our companys position in the market, while also respecting the interests of our partner. It was a victory that was hardearned and the result of meticulous planning and execution.Reflecting on the experience, I realized that business negotiation is not just about reaching an agreement its about building relationships and fostering trust. Its about understanding the other partys perspective and finding a solution that benefits all involved. Its a skill that requires patience, resilience, and a keen sense of strategy.In conclusion, the simulated business negotiation was an invaluable learning experience. It taught me the importance of preparation, the art of persuasion, and the power of collaboration. It has equipped me with the skills and knowledge that I believe will serve me well in my future career in business. As I look forward to the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, I am confident that I can navigate the complex world of business negotiations with the finesse and acumen that I have developed through this project.。

商务英语论文范文(4)2.5 Negotiation StructureCultural differences also impact on negotiation structure. Different countries have different negotiation structure, so do the team. The team in eastern countries feel that time is abundant and humans should not follow the timetable blindly. For example, Chinese people are famous for the length of their negotiations; they spend much time in the non-task sounding stage of negotiation to establish rapport and get to know their partners. Chinese people usually discuss many issues at one time, without an apparent order, they may skip from one issue to another and they may also come back to points which in the eyes of their Western partners have already been settled and concessions are made or all issues at the end of the discussion.However, the team in western countries regard time as money and would like to set fixed agendas. Western countries are emblematic of the “time is money” culture, where time i s a scarce resource. People would try to achieve its optimal allocation between the competing ways of using it. They establish timetables and deadlines. Norms tend to be strict regarding time schedules. When a discussion with someone lasts longer than planned, they will politely stop the conversation, in order to keep their schedule.2.6 Negotiation StyleNegotiation practices differ from one culture to another and cultural difference can impact on “negotiation style” --- the way people from different cultures conduct themselves. Here, we divide negotiation style into the eastern negotiation style and the western one. China and Japan are the typical countries of the East,while America the West.Chinese culture is a high–context culture. In a high-context culture, the emphasis on communication is indirectness and ambiguity. Most of the information is in the context while little is in the explicit part of the message. The external environment, situation and non-verbal behavior are crucial in understanding communications. People depend heavily upon covert clues to interpret a message given under a certain context. And also, Chinese negotiators also look forward to long-term partnership. They are not in a hurry to push for an agreement. Generally, there is a slow start to “warm up”, and then it is followed by some tentative suggestions.In the international business negotiation, saving face and achieving harmony are more important factors than achieving higher sales and profits for Japanese. As far as the Japanese negotiators are concerned, they try to build up a long-term relationship in the course of negotiation. Therefore, they prefer personal contacts in an informal way. For them, trust is more important than agreements. The reason why there is a low ratio of success between American and Japanese negotiators lies mainly in this point. Besides, Japanese negotiators try their best to avoid an open conflict between both parties. Consequently, they often ask a third party to function as go-betweens. In this way, they can prevent an unpleasant feeling from coming up on both sidesThe impression Americans leave us on the negotiating table is flexibility, straightness and zest. They never express themselves with vague words. They say “Yes” or “No” directly. Consequently, during a negotiation they like people speaking without reservation. When any conflict appears in a negotiation,Americans aim to solve the problem and never mind if you have adequate proof and dispute with them. Meanwhile, if you want to ease up the atmosphere and respond with a smile, it will be reckoned as insincere and as if you are in the wrong way. In addition, Americans respect human rights, and they can not tolerate throwing stones at a certain person behind him. American negotiators often act in an impersonal way ---“business is business” is their view, American negotiators are always mission-driven---anxious to bring parties concerned into agreement, and they have little interest in building up any relationship. Furthermore, American negotiators like to be openly challenged for the negotiation, and they think it is quite normal if they run into any conflict with any party concerned.2.7 Decision-making ProcessDecisions are made differently in different groups. They may be made by individuals or by the group as a whole. Some groups accept the decision of the majority of the group members, but other groups seek consensus among group members and will not make a decision until all members have agreed. Knowing how your counterpart makes decisions is vital to help gauge the approach you should take to persuade him or her. Take Japan and America as typical eastern and western countries for example.American people make decisions based upon the bottom line and cold, hard facts. They believe not people, but statistics and performance count. Business is business. In American view, a business negotiation is a problem-solving activity, and the solution is a deal that suits both parties.The decision making process is just like a cost-benefit analysis applied to all parties who would be touched by the decision. A decision is considered right because it produces thegreatest net benefit when all the costs and benefits to all the affected parties are taken into account. So the Americans usually list the possible effects and estimate the magnitude of their costs and benefits as accurately as possible.In general, decision-making in Japan is a communal affair requiring unanimous approval by management. In this decision-making style, everyone must be convinced, not just the key decision-maker. Upper-level managers do not make fast, on-the-spot decisions. Most Japanese companies use some form of a system of decision-making known as document system. In the lower layer of management, usually at the section level, a manager drafts a proposal after achieving consensus within his own group.The proposal is circulated to the heads of other sections and departments. These heads study the proposal. If they approve, they stamp their name seals on it. If they disapprove, they either refuse to stamp it or put their seals on it upside down. Then the document is passed up through the differentlevels of management until it reaches the president. If everyone stamps the proposal, it becomes a company policy. If not, it is usually sent back to its originator with certain suggestion. Thus all the middle managers in companies using this system perform almost all the planning functions for the company, deciding what will be done, when and how.Chapter Three Coping Strategy of Negotiating across CulturesThe culture differences in cross-cultural communication have various impacts on operation of enterprises. These differences will influence negotiation and management of transnational operation; what’s more, it may have bad effects on theharmonious relationship between our country and foreign countries. Maybe that will lead to the missing of market opportunities, the increase of trade cost and the low efficiency of company management. So, it is really necessary for us all to eliminate and avoid disadvantageous effects.3.1 Making Preparations before Negotiation.The negotiators must make good preparations if they want control the development of negotiation successfully in the complex situation. Only do they make good preparations can they make changes freely according to the situation of negotiation and avoid the happening of conflicts. Because the international business negotiation involves extensive aspects, more preparations are needed. The preparations often include the analysis of the negotiators themselves and the opponents; the constitution of negotiation group, elaborating the negotiating goal and strategy and going on imitation negotiation when necessary. When making preparations, you should try to know the opponents while you analyze yourselves. Analyzing yourselves mainly refers to studying if the project is feasible. To knowing about the opponents means understanding their strength such as credit status, the policy、 business customs and regulations of their countries and theconditions of their negotiating members and so on.3.2 Overcoming Cultural PrejudiceTolerating different cultures and overcoming cultural prejudice contribute to better communicating with each other and understanding each other. West people often think that they are powerful, capable and experienced, so sometimes, we need to recognize then and give then some good comments. We should learn about the foreign cultures before negotiation andaccept and understand their cultures in negotiation, because every country regard their own cultures as a matter of course and hope that their culture could be recognized and accepted.3.3 Conquering Communication BarriersTwo trains running at different railways in the opposite direction will collide with each other; maybe this is the best arrangement for trains. But to communication between people, there won’t be communications if people go ahead according to their own ways. Trains will collide with each other if they run on the same railway at the opposite direction. But if we measure by the objective of people’s communication, only we meet each other, can we have communication and friendship. In negotiation, sometimes we can’t make much progress although we have talked for long time. And sometimes both parties are not satisfied. After thinking, that is caused by communication barriers which happen easily in cross-cultural negotiation. We should make sure if there appear communication barriers, if so, we must overcome them. Generally speaking, we should pay more attention to the following three communication barriers in cross-cultural negotiation: the communication barriers caused by culture background of both; the ones caused by misunderstanding of the contents and information from the partner; the ones caused by not being willing to accept the opponent’s contents and ideas.。

Discuss the Applications of the PIOC (People, Interest, Options, Criteria,)Principles inCollaborativeNegotiation BrieflyThere are many negotiations in the world, but the business negotiations take the mostly dominant role. In this situation, the final purpose of each side of the negotiating parties is attempted to meet the other’s interest as well as their own. There are many kinds of negotiations such as competitive style, accommodative style, collaborative style, vengeful style, compromising style, etc. and most commercial negotiations tend to collaborative style, because it is a win-win negotiation. There are four principles which are People, Interest, Options, and Criteria. It is indispensable when we are going to talk about the collaborative negotiation owing to the applications they exert.People PrinciplePeople Principle requires separating the people from the problem. Business is business, taking too many people emotions into negotiation is harmful. Especially in collaborative negotiations, good master of People Principle need follow the three techniques.(1)Establish an accurate perception. (2)Cultivate appropriate emotion. (3)Strive for better communication.Interest PrincipleInterest principle requires focusing on interests, not positions (interests always underlie positions). A position is what you say you want or must have. An interest is why you want what you want. Taking much attention to position will greatly reduce the interest, negotiators need to distinguish between interests and positions and focus on interests not positions. There are two methods negotiators should obey. (1)Identify the self-interests. (2)Discuss interests with the other party.There is an example. Jim takes a fancy to a second-hand car which has good quality in all aspects except the high price. When he comes to the host’s officer to negotiate aiming to cut down the price, he finds the host is the boss of the company and the office is luxurious. He becomes inexplicable nervous. Having a seat for a while, the host is busy with telephone talking about a cooperative projects amount of up to millions of money. The tension and fear in the hearts of Jim are further broadened. He sits on pins and needles for a long time but the host seems not to hang up the phone and seems to ignore the existence of Jim. A strong anger begin to spread in Jim’s mind, so he deliberately makes some sound and the host finally hang up the phone and apologize to him.However, what the host said next shames Jim. The host say “my time is tight, aren’t you tell me you come here to cut down the price”Jim had hoped to get the car at the half price, but now he is completely suppressed by the momentum of the host. Anger becomes fear which affects Jim’s negotiating ability. He affirms the host who has the ability to do big business won’t waste time to negotiate. In order to make him leave the uneasy place and finish the embarrassing negotiation as soon as possible, Jim accepts original price. Although Jim repents himself but it’s late.In this case, Jim disobeys the People Principle. He takes emotions to the negotiation, nervous, fear and inferiority. In his mind,he and the host are not in the same level which makes him unable to negotiate with the host. Jim should calm down and get the host to participate in the mutual activities, and Jim’s emotions make the host stick to his price. Jim even not speaks out his purpose which is silly. Jim disobeysInterest Principle. He completely not focuses on his own interests but the host’s positions.He should explore and recognize the interests of the host and stand in his way. This should be a good collaborative negotiation. But owing to the deficiency of negotiation Jim lacks, the host takes advantages from Jim.Options PrincipleOptions Principle requires inventing options for mutual gains. There are often obstacles during the negotiations which needs people develop multiple solution options to reach an agreement. The ability to invent options is one of the most useful assets a negotiator can have and negotiator should avoiding the followed thinking, premature judgement, searching for the single answer, the assumption of a fixed pie and thinking that “solving their problem is their problem”.Hereare methods negotiators should obey. (1)Separate the act of inventing options from the act of judging them. (2)Develop as many options as possible before choosing one. (3)Search for mutual gains.Criteria PrincipleCriteria Principle requires insisting on using objective criteria.When options become available, negotiating parties need to decide which one suits both sides best. The guidelines for objective criteria are (1) Independence of wills of all parties. (2) Legitimate and practical. (3) Acceptance to all parties. In a word, focus on objective criteria firmly and flexibly.There is an example. A Chinese negotiating group goes to a Middle East country to negotiate a project contract. During gossip, a Chinese member discusses the Islam without intention which arise the unhappy of the other side.When come to the substantive issues, the opposite side shows no sign of conceding, and they seem to intend to withdraw negotiation. At the time, the Chinese team hurries to seek options to solute the problems. Frist, they apologize to the Islamic workers sincerely. Then the Chinese makes decision to offer them 5%account of the total amount. If they don’t accept theChineseproposes introduce another company to negotiate the contract. Finally, the Islam accept apologize and accept the contract, but the Chinese should comply with rules about Islam. Last, the two teams approach consensus.In this case, when problems occur, the Chinese not shrinkback but struggle to find solutions, and they offer two options for the Islam to choose. Last, the two groups reach agreement and take the Islam as criteria. This is a successful collaborative negotiation which applies the Interest Principle and Criteria Principle correctly. Though the Chinese give a 5% discount, but which accelerates the negotiation reached an agreement quickly.The correct application of PIOC Principles in collaborative negotiations is a powerful tool to crack the tough nuts in negotiations, and reach a consensus promptly. Principled negotiations make the win-win maximum benefit.。
