外文文献翻译-国际商务谈判外文文献翻译International Business NegotiationsPervez Ghauri & Jean-Claude UsunierWhen two people communicate, they rarely talk about precisely the same subject, for effective meaning is flavored by each person’s own cognitive world and culturalconditioning. Negotiation is the process by which at least twoparties try to reach an agreement on matters of mutual interest. The negotiation process proceeds as an interplay of perception, information processing, and reaction, all of which turn on images of reality (accurate or not), on implicit assumptions regarding the issue being negotiated, and on an underlying matrix of conventional wisdom, beliefs, and social expectations. Negotiations involve two dimensions: a matter of substance and the process. The latter is rarely a matter of relevance when negotiations are conducted within the same cultural setting. Only when dealing with someone from another country with a different cultural background does process usually become a critical barrier to substance; in such settings process first needs to be established before substantive negotiations can commence. This becomes more apparent when the negotiation process is international, when cultural differences must be bridged.When negotiating internationally, this translates into anticipating culturally related ideas that are most likely to be understood by a person of a given culture. Discussions are frequently impeded because the two sides seem to be pursuing different paths of logic; in any cross cultural context, the potential for misunderstanding and talking past each other is great. Negotiating internationally almost certainly means having to cope with new and inconsistent information, usually accompanied by new behavior, social environments, and even sights and smells. The greater the cultural differences, the more likely barriers to communication and misunderstandings become. When one takes the seemingly simple process of negotiations into a cross-cultural context, it becomes even more complex and complications tend to grow exponentially. It is naive indeed to venture into international negotiation with the belief that “after all, people are pretty much alikeeverywhere and behave much as we do.” Even if they wear the same clothes you do,speak English as well as (or even better than) you, and prefer many of the comforts and attributes of American life (food, hotels, sports), it would be foolish to view a1member of another culture as a brother in spirit. That negotiation style you use so effectively at home can be ineffective and inappropriate when dealing with people from another cultural background;in fact its use can often result in more harm than gain. Heightened sensitivity, more attention to detail, and perhaps even changes in basic behavioral patterns are required when working in another culture.Members of one culture may focus on different aspects of an agreement (e.g., legal, financial) than may members of another culture (personal, relationships). The implementation of a business agreement may be stressed in one culture, while the range and prevention of practical problems may be emphasized in another culture. In some cultures, the attention of people is directed more toward the specific details of the agreement (documenting the agreement), while other cultures may focus on how the promises can be kept (process and implementation). Americans negotiate a contract; the Japanese negotiate a personal relationship. Culture forces people to view and value differently the many social interactions inherent in fashioning any agreement. Negotiations can easily break down because of a lack of understanding of the cultural component of the negotiation process. Negotiators who take the time to understand the approach that the other parties are likely to use and to adapt their own styles to that one are likely to be more effective negotiators.American and Russian people are not similar; their ethical attitudes do not coincide: they evaluate behavior differently. What an American may consider normative, positive behavior (negotiating and reaching a compromise with an enemy), a Russian perceives as showing cowardice, weakness, and unworthiness; the word “deal” has a strong negativeconnotation, even today in contemporary Russia. Similarly, for Russians, compromise has negative connotation; principles are supposed to be inviolable and compromise is a matter of integrity (The Russians are not alone here: a Mexican will not compromise as a matter of honor, dignity, and integrity; likewise, an Arab fears loss of manliness if he compromises.) A negotiation is treated as a whole without concessions. At the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) talks, the Americans thought they had an agreement (meaning conclusive commitment), while the Russians said it was an understanding (meaning an expression of mutual viewpoint or attitude). When the Americans thought they had an understanding, the Russians said it was a procedural matter, meaning they had agreed to a process for conducting the negotiation. Different cultural systems can produce divergent negotiating styles--styles shaped by each nation’s culture, geography,history, and political system. Unless you see the world through the other’s eyes (no2matter how similar they appear to you), you may not be seeing or hearing the same. No one can usually avoid bringing along his or her own cultural assumptions, images, and prejudices or other attitudinal baggage into any negotiating situation. The way one succeeds in cross cultural negotiations is by fully understanding others, using that understanding to one’s own advantage to realize what each party wants from thenegotiations, and to turn the negotiations into a win-win situationfor both sides. A few potential problems often encountered during across-cultural negotiation include ( Frank, 1992):Insufficient understanding of different ways of thinking.Insufficient attention to the necessity to save face.Insufficient knowledge of the host country--including history, culture,government, status of business, image of foreigners.Insufficient recognition of political or other criteria.Insufficient recognition of the decision-making process.Insufficient understanding of the role of personal relations and personalities.Insufficient allocation of time for negotiations.Over two-thirds of U.S.-Japanese negotiation efforts fail eventhough both sides want to reach a successful business agreement (The U.S. Department of Commerce is even more pessimistic; it estimates that for every successful American negotiation with the Japanese, there aretwenty-five failures.) In fact, these numbers hold true for most cross-cultural meetings. Often barriers to a successful agreement are of a cultural nature rather than of an economical or legal nature. Since each side perceives the other from its own ethnocentric background and experience, often neither side fully comprehends why the negotiations failed. It is precisely this lack of knowledge concerning the cultureand the “alien” and “unnatural” expectations of the other sidethat hinders effective negotiation with those from another culture.In cross-cultural negotiations, many of the rules taught and used domestically may not apply--especially when they may not be culturally acceptable to the other party. For most Western negotiators this includes the concepts of give and take, of bargaining, and even of compromise. The stereotypical, common Western ideal of a persuasive communicator--highly skilled in debate, able to overcome objections with verbal flair, an energetic extrovert--may be regarded by members of other cultures as unnecessarily aggressive, superficial, insincere, even vulgar and repressive. To other Americans, the valued American traits of directness and frankness show evidence of good intentions and personal convictions. To an American it is complimentary to be3called straightforward and aggressive. This is not necessarily so, however, for members of other cultures. To describe a person as “aggressive” is a derogatorycharacterization to a British citizen. To the Japanese, those very same traits indicate lack of confidence in one’s convictions and insincerity. Instead, terms such asthoughtful, cooperative, considerate, and respectful instillpositives in the Japanese and many Asian cultures.Domestically, the study of negotiation tends to encompass business relationships between parties, tactics, bargaining strategies, contingency positions, and so on. However, in a cross-cultural context,besides the usual rules of negotiation, one has to be wary of fine nuances in relationships and practices and how they are perceived and executed by members of the other culture. The two business negotiators are separated from each other not only by physical features, a totally different language, and business etiquette, but also by a different way to perceive the world, to define business goals, to express thinking and feeling, to show or hide motivation and interests. From the other party’s perspective, for example, to some cultures Americans may appear aggressive and rude, while to others, those very same Americans appear calm and uninterested.1 The Art of NegotiationsThe word “negotiations” stems from the Roman word negotiari meaning “to(not) and otium (ease carry on business” and is derived from the Latin root words negor leisure). Obviously it was as true for the ancient Romans as itis for most businesspersons of today that negotiations and business involves hard work. A modern definition of negotiation is two or more parties with common (and conflicting) interests who enter into a process of interaction with the goal of reaching an agreement (preferably of mutual benefit). John Kenneth Galbraith said “Sex apart, negotiation is the most common and problematic involvement of one person with another, and the two activities are not unrelated.” Negotiations are a decision-makingprocess that provides opportunities for the parties to exchange commitments or promises through which they will resolve their disagreements and reach a settlement. A negotiation is two or more parties striving to agree when their objectives do not coincide.Negotiation consists of two distinct processes: creating value and claiming value. Creating value is a cooperative process whereby the parties in the negotiation seek to realize the full potential benefit of the relationship. Claiming value is essentially a competitive process. The key to creating value is finding interests that the parties have4in common or that complement each other, then reconciling and expanding upon these interests to create a win-win situation. Parties at the negotiating table are interdependent. Their goals are locked together. A seller cannot exist without a buyer. The purpose of a negotiation is a joint decision-making process through which the parties create a mutually acceptable settlement. The objective is to pursue a win-win situation for both parties.Negotiations take place within the context of the four Cs: common interest, conflicting interests, compromise, and criteria (Moran and Stripp, 1991). Common interest considers the fact that each party in the negotiation shares, has, or wants something that the other party has or does. Without a common goal, there would be no need for negotiation. Conflict occurs when people have separate but conflicting interests. Areas of conflicting interests could include payment, distribution,profits, contractual responsibilities, and quality. Compromise involves resolving areas of disagreement. Although a win-win negotiated settlement would be best for both parties, the compromises that are negotiated may not produce the result. The criteria include the conditions under which the negotiations take place. The negotiation process has few rules of procedure. Rules of procedure are as much a product of negotiation as the issues. Over time, the four Cs change and the information, know-how, and alternatives available to the negotiating international company and the host country also change, resulting in a fresh interpretation of the four Cs, the environment, and the perspective. In essence, negotiation takes place within the context of the political, economic, social, and cultural systems of a country. The theory of the negotiation process includes the following dimensions: (1) bargainer characteristics, (2) situational constraints, (3) the process of bargaining, and (4) negotiation outcomes. This theory is based on actors who share certain values and beliefs based on their culture. These actors function in business and economic situations that also have cultural influences, and they act in certain culturally inscribed ways. We bargain when:1. A conflict of interest exists between two or more parties; that is, what is, whatone wants is not necessarily what the other one wants.2. A fixed or set of rules or procedures for resolving the conflict does not exist,or the parties prefer to work outside of a set of rules to inventtheir ownsolution to the conflict.53. The parties, at least for the moment, prefer to search for agreement rather thanto fight openly, to have one side capitulate, to permanently breakoff contact,or to take their dispute to a higher authority to resolve it.In summary, negotiations primarily consists of five aspects: (1) goals: motivating the parties to enter; (2) the process of negotiatingthat involves communications and actions; (3) outcomes; (4) preexisting background factors of cultural traditions and relations; and (5)specific situational conditions under which the negotiation is conducted.2 VerbalLanguage is highly important. When people from different cultures communicate, culture-specific factors affect how they encode and decode their messages. Negotiators should check understanding periodically,move slowly, use questions liberally, and avoid slang and idioms. Eventhe discussion of negotiation, compromise, and agreement has different meanings to different cultures. Both the American and Korean meaningsfor the word “corruption” are negative; however in the United States, the word connotes being morally wrong while for the Koreansit implies being socially unfortunate. The Mexican will not compromiseas a matter of honor, dignity, and integrity. The Arab fears loss of manliness if he compromises. In Russia, compromise has a negative connotation; principles are supposed to be inviolable and compromise is a matter of integrity. For Russians, a negotiation is treated as a whole without concessions.In the American culture, those who refuse to bargain are viewed as cold, secretive, and not really serious about conducting business. The Dutch are not hagglers; you should make your offer fairly close to your true asking price; if you start making large concessions you will lose their confidence. The Swedes are methodical, detailed individuals who are slow to change positions. Bargaining is not highly valued in Swedish culture; those who bargain, who attempt to negotiate by offering a higher price in order to concede to a lower price, can be viewed as untrustworthy, inefficient, or perhaps out for personal gain at the expense of others.3 Nonverbal Communications in Cross-Cultural NegotiationsNonverbal behavior may be defined as any behavior, intentional or unintentional, beyond the words themselves that can be interpreted by a receiver as having meaning. Nonverbal behaviors could include facial expressions, eye contact, gestures, body movements, posture, physical appearance, space, touch, and time usage. They are all different from culture to culture. Nonverbal behaviors either accompany verbal6messages or are used independently of verbal messages. They mayaffirm and emphasize or negate and even contradict spoken messages. Nonverbal behaviors are more likely to be used unconsciously and spontaneously because they are habitual and routine behaviors.The wide range of behaviors called nonverbal behavior can be divided into seven categories. Gestures, body movement, facial movement, and eye contact are combined in the kinesic code commonly called body language. Vocalics refers to call vocal activity other than the verbal context itself. Also called paralanguage, vocalics includes tone, volume, and sounds that are not words. Behaviors that involve touching are placed in the haptics code. The use of space is called proxemics, and the use of time is chronemics. Physical appearance includes body shape and size, as well as clothing and jewelry. Finally, artifacts refer to objects that are associated with a person, such as one’s desk, car, or books. It should be emphasized that these codes do not usually function independently or sequentially; rather, they work simultaneously. In addition, nonverbal behavior is always sending messages; we can not communicate without using them, although, at times, the messages may be ambiguous. This wide range of nonverbal behaviors serves various functions in all face-to-face encounters. Most important, emotional messages at the negotiating table are expressed nonverbally by gestures, tone of voice, or facial expressions. The other side’sinterpretation of your statement depends on the nonverbal more than what was actually said. Nonverbal communications is significant.From: International Business Negotiations, 20017国际商务谈判伯维茨.高利, 简.科劳德.阿斯尼尔当两个人交流时,他们很少精确地谈论相同的问题,因为实际的意思会受到每个人认知的世界和文化熏陶的影响。
国际商务谈判(英文)chapter7 Closing the Negotiation and its tactics[精]
7.2 Tactics towards agreement 7.2.2 Setting deadlines
There are positive implications for setting a deadline for the negotiations.The setting of a deadline helps to concentrate the mind,the energy, the effort,and the speed of achievement.
statement Literally,this means complete readiness to
give to the other party all one’s information.In practice,there will always be some elements people ale unwilling to disclose and some other elements they are unable to disclose.We therefore have to interpret“full disclosure”as meaning the disclosure of 90 percent of what we perceive.
9
7.2 Tactics towards agreement 7.2.1 Recessing
By recessing we mean taking a short break during which each party moves out of the negotiation forum to reconsider the progress of the negotiation, and to reconsider its own position;or breaking off until a later session.Recessing is such an important device that the method of using it deserves to be examined.When do we use it? How do we arrange it? How do we restart?

国际商务谈判(英文版)(doc 10页)封面Fashion creative companyname作者:日期:邮箱:2Business Negotiation – Lesson 2 Chapter 1Slide 1One of the most important things to remember in business is to never make enemies. You don’t have to love everyone, but if you dislike someone make sure you don’t show it. Your enemy today may be your boss tomorrow.Slide 2The basic principles of negotiation are:- communication, negotiable issues, common interests, give and take, trust and to be a good listener.Slide 3The most successful negotiation ends with a win-win solution. Both parties must feel as though they have gained something. Both parties must negotiate towards a mutual gain.Slide 4Before negotiations begin, both parties should know the following six details:- why, who with, what, where, when and how they negotiate. Slide 5Negotiation is a process of exchanging information between two sides and both sides try to understand each other’s points of view. Both parties know that they have common and conflicting objectives, so they try to find a way to achieve a common and helpful objective that will be acceptable to them both.Slide 6In summary: common interests must be sought. Negotiation is not a game. In a successful negotiation, everyone wins something.Slide 7Succ ess isn’t winning everything –it’s winning enough. Slide 8In negotiation, both equality and mutual benefit are very important. Both parties are equal in status. They have equal rights and obligations. Remember that in a successful negotiation, each party must gain something or there is no reason for the other party to participate. Both parties should prepare well for the negotiation and be ready to satisfy the other party’s needs on an equal basis.Slide 9Through negotiation, both parties are seeking an arrangement of a business situation. The purpose of this is to seek a win-win situation instead of a win-lose one. It is through sincere cooperation that this result can be made.Slide 10Sincerity is very important for a negotiator’s style. Develop trust between the two parties. Treat others as you want to be treated, this will promote the negotiation and get successful results.Slide 11 Keep it flexible and fluid. Do not be too rigid in what you want to give, and in what you want to take. All negotiations are a process of constant thinking, exchanging information and continuous giving. Before negotiation try and work out what the other party might be thinking, what their needs may be and what their tactics might be.Slide 12 During negotiation, it is very easy for conflicts to happen. It may be that one side wants to take more than what they give. When this happens, either side may break out of the relationship. Thisis a lose-lose situation. It is in both parties interests to find ways to minimize their conflict to achieve a win-win situation.Slide 13 Most business negotiations take place between suppliers and purchasers (sellers and buyers).A supplier cannot exist unless he has a purchaser.Slide 14 Of course in negotiations both parties want to give as little as possible, and to take as much as possible, gaining as much profit as possible in the process. So during negotiations both parties usually give only a little at a time.Slide 15 Both parties must be flexible and make changes during negotiation as required by the situation.Slide 16 Negotiators need to be cooperative and dedicated, to find the best solution possible, insteadof just being concerned with their own needs.Slide 17 In negotiation, both sides must try to reach an agreement that maximizes their own outcome. This may lead either side to be concerned only with their own gain and ignore the needs of the other party. Remember that most business relationships last for a long period of time, so it is beneficial for both parties to gain a win-win situation and continue the business relationship.Slide 18 The three stages of negotiation are:-pre-negotiation, during negotiation andpost-negotiation.Slide 19 The pre-negotiation stage begins from the first contact between the two sides. This is when they show interest in doing business with each other. During this stage the gathering of information will determine the success or failure of the negotiation. The information to be gathered by either party should include:- the market, policies, regulations and financial background.Slide 20 The second stage of negotiation (during negotiation) has five phases through which it must proceed. They are:- exploration (finding out what the other party want), bidding (giving), bargaining, agreeing and making it official (contract).Slide 21 The third stage is post-negotiation. At this stage, all the terms have been agreed upon and the contract is being drawn up, ready to be signed.Business Negotiation – Lesson 4 Chapter 2Slide 1Title page - Today we are working on chapter 2.Slide 2Proper Behaviour in Business Negotiation. People always make assumptions before negotiation and try to guess what the other party are assuming. Assumptions may be true or false, they need to be verified. Listening, talking, inquiring and observing are very important for a successful negotiation.Slide 3Hidden Assumptions. We sometimes place ourselves at a great disadvantage with hidden assumptions about what other people’s motivati ons and actions might be. Don’t assume you know everything about your opponents.Slide 4Listening. Listening carefully to the words spoken by the other party is very important. You must understand what the needs of the other party are. Paying attention to phrasing (the vocabulary they use), their choice of expressions, the mannerisms of speech and the tone of voice they are using. All of these elements give you clues to the needs of what the other party wants.Slide 5The barrier of listening. Some topics are rather difficult and hard to comprehend, do not get distracted, stay focussed. If necessary ask the speaker to repeat something that you have missed or do not fully understand. When you are taking notes, concentrate on the concepts and principles first and then if you have time, write down the facts.Slide 6Active listening. When someone is making a point or presenting an opinion, do not interrupt until they have finished speaking. Then you can ask them to repeat any parts that you didn’t understand.Slide 7Negotiation language. You should only communicate the points needed, to encourage the action your party desires.Your party should be informative, to support only the details necessary to make your offer clear. Keep your sentences simple. Your presentation should be fair and consider both the pros and the cons. Your presentation should be cooperative and friendly, not argumentative or hostile. It should emphasize the positive points, not the negative points.Slide 8Aspects to be aware of. Listeners judge you by how you talk. Your speaking voice is one of the first impressions people have of you. A person may be characterized as friendly if his or her voice sounds warm and well modulated. If someone has a flat monotonous voice they will be judged as dull and boring. Do not talk too fast or you will give the impression that you are nervous and not confident. Slide 9Asking questions. In an appropriate situation you should ask the other party “What do you want from this negotiation? What are your expectations? What would you like to accomplish?” Be quiet after asking a question, encourage others to talk as much as possible so youcan gain more information. When you ask questions, make sure you listen to the answers.Slide 10Answering questions. Always give yourself time to think about the question being asked. Never answer until you clearly understand what is being asked. Do not be embarrassed to ask them to explain the meaning of their question. Before negotiations begin, anticipate what questions may be asked, so that you can plan your answers before the negotiation.Slide 11Observing. Besides listening to the other party in an attempt to learn their desires and needs, you must also closely observe their gestures. Body language and gestures are very important. Our entire bodies, including our head, arms, hands, fingers and even our posture can convey a message. Slide 12Eye contact. A person who looks away a lot while listening to you is showing that they are not happy with with you or what you are saying.Slide 13 The mouth. When you meet or greet someone, you should do so with a warm, genuine smile.Slide 14Hands. What you do with your hands is a very significant form of body language. Your handshake reveals clues to what you really think of someone. A firm handshake gives the impression of confidence and seriousness. The weak handshake has no energy at all and suggests a lack of confidence, interest and warmth. If the other party puts both of his/her hands on the table and he/she leans forward, it means they are confident and ready to get down to business.Slide 15 The nose. Touching the nose or slowly rubbing it usually means someone has doubt in what they are saying and maybe it could indicate that this person is lying.Slide 16 The legs. A person whose legs are crossed, and who is leaning away from you is probably very competitive. If someone has their legs crossed and their arms crossed they will be difficult opponent.If the person has their legs crossed and they are swinging the top leg it means that they are probably bored with your ideas and opinions. If someone likes you or your ideas they will lean forward slightly in a relaxed manner with a slightly curved back.Slide 17 The Feet. A person whose toes are turned towards each other (pigeon toed) or tucked under the chair is very timid or scared.Business Negotiation – Lesson 6 Chapter 4Slide 1 Title Page– Today we will work on chapter 4.Slide 2Preparing for Negotiation. A successful negotiation is determined by its preparation. Thinking beforehand about who you are going to meet, what is going to be discussed, and what will be the best approach is very important. Good preparation has an impact on the opening stages of a negotiation, which sets the tone for the rest of the meetings.Slide 3Scheduling the first meetings. The first impression each side makes will most likely have a major effect on the style, progress and eventual outcome of the negotiations. Scheduling the first round of meetings is an important task for both sides and should be handled in a manner that preserves the professionalism of all the attendees. Arrive to the meeting promptly and be prepared to get right to work.Slide 4Setting the agenda. From a communication point of view, the process of structuring and controlling a negotiation focuses on the importance of setting an agenda and a procedure for the meeting. The agenda includes the order of the issues to negotiate and its main negotiation methods like what to negotiate first, what others to negotiate later and what is the final goal to attain etc. Slide 5Negotiating Agenda. An agenda pay be presented by one side or prepared by both parties, or each side may prepare a general agenda and a detailed agenda. The general agenda is presented to the other side, and the detailed agenda is for your own use. Attention should be given to the various issues to be discussed so that strategies can be developed. The issues might be listed so that the major ones are discussed first. This will prevent wasting time on minor issues and to make sure of leaving sufficient time to discuss the major ones.Slide 6Preparing for negotiation. Do your homework. Successful negotiation results are directly related to its smooth implementation and will bring enormous results.Slide 7Establishing Objectives. The objective is the prerequisite of a negotiation. Under the guidance of clear, specific, impersonal and feasible objectives could the negotiation be in a positive position.Key elements of negotiation objectives are:-Who can contribute to this negotiation, who will be affected by this negotiation, what are the maximum and minimum targets to seek. Minimum targets means the targets or benefits we would never give up, in other words there is no room for bargaining. Maximum targets are the targets or benefits we could think of giving up under critical conditions.Slide 8Key elements of negotiation objectives (cont.) When would we like to conclude the negotiation, where is the best place for the negotiation, why has the other party chosen us to negotiate with, what concessions are we willing to make and what concessions will the other party be likely to make.Making the objective of a negotiation rigid might cause the negotiation to breakdown. An alternative method of formulating objectives might be to keep them fluid so that the expectations can change with the circumstances of the negotiation.Slide 9Issues and positions. Any information upon which there is disagreement can be organised into the negotiation issues. Issues are the things on which one side takes an affirmative position and the other side takes a negative position. Issues should be realistic. It is important that we should try to negotiate problems rather than our demands. Our demands are only a one-solution approach to the problems. There may be other solutions. It is said that your bargaining position should conceal (hide) as well as reveal (show), and as negotiations continue, concessions alternate from each side.Slide 10Meeting places. Should you conduct the negotiation in your office, or should you go to the other party’s home ground? The general rule is that you perform better on your own home ground. A negotiator on home ground is more assertive and more confident. In contrast a negotiator that is a guest on the other party’s home ground may feel subordinate. The fairest for both parties is to meet on neutral territory where no one will have the psychological edge.Slide 11Opening the meeting. Good negotiating atmosphere is better to be formed at the very beginning of the negotiations. Therefore, both parties should seize the occasion of the first meeting when doing self-introduction or being introduced. Try to behave gracefully and speak clearly to make the impression of being kind, natural and honest. Exercises from bookBusiness Negotiation – Lesson 9 Chapter 5Slide 1Title Page – Chapter 5Slide 2The Bargaining Process.The pattern of bidding and bargaining is seen by many people to be the core of the negotiation process. Almost all the negotiations have something to do with bidding and bargaining. The bargaining process is normally very intense. Both sides are trying to move to their own advantage. Or if it is not possible to cut the cake so that both parties get what they want, then they bargain in such a way that the dissatisfaction will be equally shared between them.Slide 3Bidding.The opening bid (price) needs to be ‘the highest’ because:- our first bid influences others in their valuation of our offer, a high bid gives room for manoeuvre during the later bargaining stages, the opening bid has a real influence on the final settlement level. The more we ask, the more we will achieve.Slide 4Bidding (cont.). You must be able to justify your original bid, you should not only seek to gain as much as possible but you also take the other party into consideration. Putting forward a bid that unrealistic and cannot be defended will damage the negotiation process. If we cannot defend our bid when challenged we will lose face and credibility. Slide 5The Highest Realistic Bid. The highest defensible bid is not set in concrete. It is a figure that is relevant to the particular circumstances. If the opposing party is pushing for their advantage, then for our advantage we must push for the highest price. If we have a lot of competition, we musttailor our opening bid to the level at which it at least enables us to be invited to continue negotiations. Slide 6Content of Bid. The content of the bid usually needs to cover a range of issues:- the price, how badly the product is needed, the amount of product needed, product credibility, credit terms (payment of goods), competition in the market. The parts of the opening bid in a commercial negotiation will not only be price, but a combination of :- price, delivery, payment terms, quality specification etc.Slide 7Presentation Tactics. In the bidding presentation of the negotiation process, there are three guidelines to the way in which a bid should be presented:- firmly, clearly and without comment. The bid should be put firmly, seriously and without hesitations. It needs to be understood clearly so that the other party recognises precisely what is being asked. In the process of negotiation, it’s better to have the quotation typed on paper, to ensure the clarity of the bid and to show the other party a sense of seriousness and legitimation.Slide 8Responding Tactics. Both sides at this time are trying to move the negotiation to a more favourable direction to their own side. It’s quite necessary to do some homework, researching the other side before responding to the bid.The competent negotiator should make sure they understand what the other party is bidding, should have an idea how to satisfy the other party and at the same time try and figure out what the other party’s expectations are. The competent negotiator should summarise his/her understanding of the bid as a check on the effectiveness of communication between the two parties.Slide 9Bargaining. In this stage of the negotiation it is very important not to give the other party too much too soon. Bargaining should be to your advantage, however you must also make a fair deal in which both parties are equally satisfied or equally dissatisfied.Slide 10Bargaining Moves. As we start the bargaining process we need to take two steps:- get it clear, assess the situation. It is vital to establish a clear picture of the other party’s requi rements at the beginning. You must have a clear picture of what the other party is bidding already. Your main concern is to understand what bid is being offered. Slide 11Clarification of Opposers Bid. Check every item of the other party’s bid. Inquir e the reason and bases of the bid, ask how important the item is and how much flexibility is in the bid. Pay attention to the other party’s explanation and response. Listen to the other party’s answers without comment and reserve your opinion.Slide 12Clarification of your Bid. Try not to divulge too much information and knowledge, keep things simple. Give only the essentials asked for, do not go into lengthy comments or justifications. Slide 13Assessing the Situation. After understanding what the real expectations are of the other party, you have to assess the situation. Identify any differences between the two parties expectations are. Assess what direction should be taken in order to obtain the best deal.Slide 14Assessment. What will the other party accept, what won’t the other party accept, what will the other party negotiate, bargaining strengths and weaknesses, price, terms and the probable settlement area.Slide 15Assuming. Having assessed the differences between both parties you need to analyse the other party’s real position. Remember assuming is only guessing, you can never be certain that you are right.Slide 16After Assessment. After assessment there are three options available:- to accept the terms offered and asked for by the other party, to reject the terms offered and asked for by the other party or to carry on negotiating.Slide 17Continue Negotiations. In order to continue the negotiation, preparation should be made for the next round. These preparations involve the following steps:- provide a new offer from our party, seek a new offer from the other party, change the shape of the deal. In summary the first stage of bargaining involves understanding what the other party really wants, assessing the situation and thedifferences between both parties, preparing for the next round of negotiations.Slide 18Influencing the Deal. A deal can be influenced by the situation. To influence the situation a party can offer:- a different deal, better conditions and new opportunities.Slide 19Making Concessions. Making concessions is the most popular tactics used in the bargaining process to keep the negotiations on going. Making concessions depends on many factors:- when to concede, what to concede and how to concede. Every concession is closely connected to a party’s own interests.Slide 20Trading Concessions. A party should trade their concessions to their own advantage, doing their best to give the other party plenty of satisfaction even if the concessions are small. To trade concessions to your party’s advantage you should use the following tactics:- listen to the other party very carefully, give the other party detailed specifications, show the other party how they can benefit from the agreement on the terms that are asked. Reserve concessions until they are needed in the negotiation, you may be able to negotiate an agreement without giving too many concessions.Slide 21 Breaking an Impasse. In the bargaining process, the two parties may be rigid with what they want to give and what they want to take. If this occurs the negotiations fall into a dilemma. This kind of situation is called negotiation impasse. The two parties should try to find the cause of it and actively search for ways out of the impasse. Negotiators strive to preserve their face, their status, their credibility, their reputation and their self respect.Slide 22Coping with Conflict. The first principle in coping with these conflicts is to keep it fluid. Start talking discounts, terms of payment, change of specification and quality control.Slide 23 Towards Settlement. When the parties become aware that a settlement is approaching a new mood is established. At the end of the negotiation both parties should work together to summarize, produce a written record of the agreement and identify what actions and responsibilities need to be taken care of and by which party.Business Negotiation – Lesson 11 Chapter 7 Slide 1Title page– lesson 11 Chapter 7Slide 2Negotiation Strategies. Negotiation strategies are established in order to achieve the negotiation objectives. They are acting guidelines and policies of the whole negotiating process and are subject to modification with the progress of the negotiation.Slide 3Choice of Strategies. There are quite a few background considerations which will influence the strategy, these are:- repeatability, strength of both parties, importance of the deal and time scale.Slide 4Repeatability. Repeatability is an important influence on the styles and tactics that should be used. If it is a series of deals with one organisation, then there needs to be goodwill and lasting relationships built with that organisation, a personal relationship is essential. If on the other hand, the negotiation is for a one time only deal with an organisation not likely to be met again, then the situation is strategically different.Slide 5Strength of Both Parties. The second influence on the choice of strategies is each party’s strength. If the party is the only people with whom a deal could be made, then the party are in a strong position. If there are many potential customers or suppliers, then the party are in a relatively weak position. A party is strong if they dominate a market either as buyers or sellers. A party is weak if they are just one of many.Slide 6Importance of the Deal. If the negotiation is a deal worth millions of dollars, then the strategy needs to be different from negotiations that are worth thousands of dollars.Slide 7Time Scale. The time scale for the deal may also influence the strategy. If it is imperative that the deal be concluded quickly, then the negotiation strategy may be different from what it would be if there was little urgency.Slide 8Guidelines for Strategic Decisions. The first of the strategic decisions which must be made is the choice of the other party. If there is a choice, how many parties should be negotiated with?Which parties should be chosen? The choice of the other party with be strongly influenced by the range of commercial interests, the reputation, the reliability, the integrity and the quality etc. of the possible other parties.Slide 9Guidelines for Strategic Decisions. The second of the strategic decisions which must be made is how quick the negotiations should proceed. The most dominate party should choose a quick deal. The weaker party should hold back. If there is no clear pattern of the stronger or weaker party, the strategy should be to hold back.Slide 10Quick Deals. For a quick deal, there needs to be precise targets and very clear views about the extent to which compromises could be made. What style should be used to negotiate? If a quick deal strategy is adopted, the need is to move quickly and the style should be to our advantage. If the strategy is to hold back, then the option is to either be creative oriented or advantage oriented. Each negotiator has their own strengths, and it is desirable that they should negotiate in a style which reflects those strengths.Slide 11Negotiation Strategies. A s trategy is a plan of techniques and tactics used in the actual process of an action, in this case a negotiation. Techniques to plan are:- when to move, where to go and how fast to go. These are all determined by certain conditions. To accomplish the aims in a negotiation, the inexperienced negotiator’s strategy will be limited to a few simple and obvious devices e.g price, terms etc.Slide 12How and Where Strategy. The how and where strategy involves the method of application and the area of application. Often it is advantageous to use two or more strategic approaches in the same negotiation. Some of the main forms of the how and where strategy are:- participation, crossroads, blanketing, salami, agency and shifting levels.Slide 13Participation. Is the form of strategy where we enlist the help of the other party on our behalf. Slide 14Crossroads. With the crossroads strategy either party may introduce several matters into the discussion so that there can be concessions on one hand and gains on the other.Slide 15Blanketing. In blanketing, one technique is to try to cover as large an area as possible to achieve a breakthrough in one or more places.Slide 16Salami. The strategy of salami means a slice at a time. This strategy involves dealing with an issue bit by bit, slice by slice.Slide 17Agency. The agency strategy is when you ask someone else to conduct the negotiation on your behalf.Slide 18Shifting Levels. And finally we come to the final type of strategy which is shifting levels. Shifting levels deals with a strategy or tactic in which involvement in the problem is changed to a higher or lower level.Slide 19Reminder. You will have to use all different types of strategies when negotiating. You will have to adapt to the other party and to the situation.Lesson 13 Chapter 11Slide 1Title Page – different business cultures and negotiations. A business negotiator should have some understanding of different cultures, customs and business conventions of different countries. Slide 2There are two main rules of international business. The first is that the seller is expected to adapt to the buyer. The second is that the visitor is expected to observe the local customs. To observe the local custo ms doesn’t mean to copy the local behavior, just be yourself. But of course, you should include being aware of local sensitivities and generally honoring local customs, habits and traditions.Slide 3One classification of organizational style distinguishes between people who are task-oriented and people who are people-oriented. People who are purely task-oriented are concerned entirely with achieving a business goal. They are not concerned about the affect that their actions have on the people that they will come into contact with. As。

Business Negotiation – Lesson 2 Chapter 1Slide 1One of the most important things to remember in business is to never make enemies. You don’t haveto love everyone, but if you dislike someone make sure you don’t sho w it. Your enemy today may be your boss tomorrow.Slide 2The basic principles of negotiation are:- communication, negotiable issues, common interests, give and take, trust and to be a good listener.Slide 3The most successful negotiation ends with a win-win solution. Both parties must feel as though they have gained something. Both parties must negotiate towards a mutual gain.Slide 4Before negotiations begin, both parties should know thefollowing six details:- why, who with, what, where, when and how they negotiate.Slide 5Negotiation is a processof exchanging information between two sides and both sides try tounderstand each other’s points of view. Both parties know that theyhave common and conflictingobjectives, so they try to find a wayto achieve a common and helpful objective that will be acceptable to them both.Slide 6In summary: commoninterests must be sought.Negotiation is not a game. In a successful negotiation, everyone wins something.Slide 7Success isn’t winning everything –it’s winning enough.Slide 8In negotiation, both equality and mutual benefit are very important. Both parties are equal in status. They have equal rights and obligations. Remember that in a successful negotiation, each partymust gain something or there is no reason for the other party to participate. Both parties should prepare well for the negotiation andbe ready to satisfy the otherparty’s needs on an equal basis.Slide 9Through negotiation, both parties are seeking an arrangement ofa business situation. The purpose of this is to seek a win-win situation instead of a win-lose one. It is through sincere cooperation that this result can be made.Slide 10Sincerity is veryimportant for a negotiator’s style. Develop trust between the two parties. Treat others as you want to betreated, this will promote the negotiation and get successfulresults.Slide 11Keep it flexible and fluid. Do not be too rigid in what you want to give, and in what you want to take. All negotiations are a process of constant thinking, exchanging information and continuous giving. Before negotiation try and work out what the other party might be thinking, what their needs may be and what their tactics might be.Slide 12During negotiation, it is very easy for conflicts to happen.It may be that one side wants to take more than what they give. When this happens, either side may break out of the relationship. This is a lose-lose situation. It is in bothparties interests to find ways to minimize their conflict to achieve a win-win situation.Slide 13Most business negotiations take place between suppliers and purchasers (sellers and buyers). A supplier cannot exist unless he has a purchaser.Slide 14Of course in negotiations both parties want to give as little as possible, and to take as much as possible, gaining as much profit as possible in the process. So during negotiations both parties usually give only a little at a time.Slide 15Both parties must be flexible and make changes during negotiation as required by the situation.Slide 16Negotiators need to be cooperative and dedicated, to find the best solution possible, instead of just being concerned with their own needs.Slide 17In negotiation, bothsides must try to reach an agreement that maximizes their own outcome. This may lead either side to be concerned only with their own gainand ignore the needs of the other party. Remember that most business relationships last for a long period of time, so it is beneficial for both parties to gain a win-win situation and continue the business relationship.Slide 18The three stages of negotiation are:- pre-negotiation, during negotiation and post-negotiation.Slide 19The pre-negotiation stage begins from the first contact between the two sides. This is when they show interest in doing business with each other. During this stage the gathering of information will determine the success or failure of the negotiation. The information to be gathered by either party should include:- the market, policies, regulations and financial background.Slide 20The second stage of negotiation (during negotiation) has five phases through which it must proceed. They are:- exploration (finding out what the other party want), bidding (giving), bargaining, agreeing and making it official (contract).Slide 21 The third stage is post-negotiation. At this stage, all the terms have been agreed upon and thecontract is being drawn up, ready to be signed.Business Negotiation – Lesson 4 Chapter 2Slide 1Title page - Today we are working on chapter 2.Slide 2Proper Behaviour in Business Negotiation. People always make assumptions before negotiation and try to guess what the other party are assuming. Assumptions may betrue or false, they need to be verified. Listening, talking, inquiring and observing are very important for a successful negotiation.Slide 3Hidden Assumptions. We sometimes place ourselves at a great disadvantage with hidden assumptions about what other people’smotivations and actions might be. Don’t assume you know everything about your opponents.Slide 4Listening. Listening carefully to the words spoken by the other party is very important. You must understand what the needs of the other party are. Paying attention to phrasing (the vocabulary they use), their choice of expressions, the mannerisms of speech and the tone of voice they are using. All of these elements give you clues to the needsof what the other party wants.Slide 5The barrier of listening. Some topics are rather difficult and hard to comprehend, do not get distracted, stay focussed. If necessary ask the speaker to repeat something that you have missed or do not fully understand. When you are taking notes, concentrate on the concepts and principles first andthen if you have time, write down the facts.Slide 6Active listening. When someone is making a point or presenting an opinion, do notinterrupt until they have finished speaking. Then you can ask them to repeat any parts that you didn’t understand.Slide 7Negotiation language. You should only communicate thepoints needed, to encourage theaction your party desires.Your party should be informative, to support only the details necessary to make your offer clear. Keep your sentences simple. Your presentation should be fair and consider both the pros and the cons. Your presentation should be cooperative and friendly, not argumentative or hostile. It should emphasize the positive points, not the negative points.Slide 8Aspects to be aware of. Listeners judge you by how you talk. Your speaking voice is one of thefirst impressions people have of you.A person may be characterized as friendly if his or her voice sounds warm and well modulated. If someone has a flat monotonous voice they will be judged as dull and boring. Do not talk too fast or you will give the impression that you are nervous and not confident.Slide 9Asking questions. In an appropriate situation you should ask the other party “What do you want from this negotiation? What are yourexpectations? What would you like to accomplish?” Be quiet afterasking a question, encourage othersto talk as much as possible so youcan gain more information. When you ask questions, make sure you listento the answers.Slide 10Answering questions.Always give yourself time to think about the question being asked.Never answer until you clearly understand what is being asked. Donot be embarrassed to ask them to explain the meaning of their question. Before negotiations begin, anticipate what questions may be asked, so that you can plan your answers before the negotiation.Slide 11Observing. Besideslistening to the other party in an attempt to learn their desires and needs, you must also closely observe their gestures. Body language and gestures are very important. Our entire bodies, including our head, arms, hands, fingers and even our posture can convey a message.Slide 12Eye contact. A personwho looks away a lot while listeningto you is showing that they are not happy with with you or what you are saying.Slide 13 The mouth. When you meetor greet someone, you should do sowith a warm, genuine smile.Slide 14Hands. What you do with your hands is a very significant formof body language. Your handshake reveals clues to what you reallythink of someone. A firm handshake gives the impression of confidence and seriousness. The weak handshake has no energy at all and suggests a lack of confidence, interest and warmth. If the other party puts both of his/her hands on the table andhe/she leans forward, it means theyare confident and ready to get downto business.Slide 15 The nose. Touching the nose or slowly rubbing it usually means someone has doubt in what they are saying and maybe it couldindicate that this person is lying.Slide 16 The legs. A person whose legs are crossed, and who is leaning away from you is probably very competitive. If someone has theirlegs crossed and their arms crossed they will be difficult opponent. If the person has their legs crossed and they are swinging the top leg it means that they are probably boredwith your ideas and opinions.If someone likes you or your ideasthey will lean forward slightly in a relaxed manner with a slightly curved back.Slide 17 The Feet.

The parts of the opening bid in a commercial negotiation will not only be price, but a combination of :- price, delivery, payment terms, quality specification etc.Slide 7Presentation Tactics. In the bidding presentation of the negotiation process, there are three guidelines to the way in which a bid should be presented:- firmly, clearly and without comment. The bid should be put firmly, seriously and without hesitations. It needs to be understood clearly so that the other party recognises precisely what is being asked. In the process of negotiation, it’s better to have the quotation typed on paper, to ensure the clarity of the bid and to show the other party a sense of seriousness and legitimation.Slide 8Responding Tactics. Both sides at this time are trying to move the negotiation to a more favourable direction to their own side. It’s quite necessary to do some homework, researching the other side before responding to the bid.The competent negotiator should make sure they understand what the other party is bidding, should have an idea how to satisfy the other party and at the same time try and figure out what the other party’s expectation s are. The competent negotiator should summarise his/her understanding of the bid as a check on the effectiveness of communication between the two parties.Slide 9Bargaining. In this stage of the negotiation it is very important not to give the other party too much too soon. Bargaining should be to your advantage, however you must also make a fair deal in which both parties are equally satisfied or equally dissatisfied.Slide 10Bargaining Moves. As we start the bargaining process we need to take two steps:- get it clear, assess the situation. It is vital to establish a clear picture of the other party’s requirements at the beginning. You must have a clear picture of what the other party is bidding already. Your main concernis to understand what bid is being offered.Slide 11Clarification of Opposers Bid. Check every item of the other party’s bid. Inquire the reason and bases of the bid, ask how important the item is and how much flexibility is in the bid. Pay attention to the other party’s e xplanation and response. Listen to the otherparty’s answers without comment and reserve your opinion.Slide 12Clarification of your Bid. Try not to divulge too muchinformation and knowledge, keepthings simple. Give only the essentials asked for, do not go into lengthy comments or justifications.Slide 13Assessing the Situation. After understanding what the real expectations are of the other party, you have to assess the situation. Identify any differences between the two parties expectations are. Assess what direction should be taken inorder to obtain the best deal.Slide 14Assessment. What willthe other party accept, what won’tthe other party accept, what will the other party negotiate, bargaining strengths and weaknesses, price,terms and the probable settlement area.Slide 15Assuming. Having assessed the differences between both parties you need to analyse the other party’s real position. Remember assuming is only guessing, you can never be certain that you are right.Slide 16After Assessment. After assessment there are three options available:- to accept the termsoffered and asked for by the other party, to reject the terms offeredand asked for by the other party orto carry on negotiating.Slide 17Continue Negotiations.In order to continue the negotiation, preparation should be made for thenext round. These preparationsinvolve the following steps:- provide a new offer from our party, seek a new offer from the other party, change the shape of the deal. In summary the first stage of bargaining involves understanding what the other party really wants, assessing the situation and the differences between both parties, preparing for the next round of negotiations.Slide 18Influencing the Deal. A deal can be influenced by the situation. To influence thesituation a party can offer:- a different deal, better conditions and new opportunities.Slide 19Making Concessions. Making concessions is the most popular tactics used in the bargaining process to keep the negotiations on going. Making concessions depends on many factors:- when to concede, what to concede and how to concede. Every concession is closely connected to a party’s own interests.Slide 20Trading Concessions. A party should trade their concessions to their own advantage, doing their best to give the other party plenty of satisfaction even if the concessions are small. To trade concessions to your party’s advantage you should use thefollowing tactics:- listen to the other party very carefully, give the other party detailed specifications, show the other party how they can benefit from the agreement on the terms that are asked. Reserve concessions until they are needed in the negotiation, you may be able to negotiate an agreement without giving too many concessions.Slide 21 Breaking an Impasse. In the bargaining process, the two parties may be rigid with what they want to give and what they want to take. If this occurs thenegotiations fall into a dilemma. This kind of situation is called negotiation impasse. The two parties should try to find the cause of it and actively search for ways out of the impasse. Negotiators strive to preserve their face, their status, their credibility, their reputation and their self respect.Slide 22Coping with Conflict. The first principle in coping with these conflicts is to keep it fluid. Start talking discounts, terms of payment, change of specification and quality control.Slide 23 Towards Settlement. When the parties become aware that a settlement is approaching a new mood is established. At the end of the negotiation both parties should work together to summarize, produce a written record of the agreement and identify what actions and responsibilities need to be taken care of and by which party.Business Negotiation – Lesson 11 Chapter 7Slide 1Title page– lesson 11 Chapter 7Slide 2Negotiation Strategies. Negotiation strategies are established in order to achieve the negotiation objectives. They are acting guidelines and policies of the whole negotiating process and are subject to modification with the progress of the negotiation.Slide 3Choice of Strategies. There are quite a few background considerations which will influencethe strategy, these are:- repeatability, strength of both parties, importance of the deal and time scale.Slide 4Repeatability. Repeatability is an importantinfluence on the styles and tactics that should be used. If it is aseries of deals with one organisation, then there needs to be goodwill and lasting relationships built with that organisation, a personal relationship is essential. If on the other hand, the negotiation is for a one timeonly deal with an organisation not likely to be met again, then the situation is strategically different.Slide 5Strength of Both Parties. The second influence on the choice of strategies is each party’s strength. If the party is the only people with whom a deal could be made, then the party are in a strong position. If there are many potential customers or suppliers, then the party are in a relatively weak position. A party is strong if they dominate a marketeither as buyers or sellers. A party is weak if they are just one of many.Slide 6Importance of the Deal. If the negotiation is a deal worth millions of dollars, then thestrategy needs to be different from negotiations that are worth thousands of dollars.Slide 7Time Scale. The timescale for the deal may also influence the strategy. If it is imperativethat the deal be concluded quickly,then the negotiation strategy may be different from what it would be ifthere was little urgency.Slide 8Guidelines for Strategic Decisions. The first of thestrategic decisions which must bemade is the choice of the other party. If there is a choice, how manyparties should be negotiated with? Which parties should be chosen? The choice of the other party with be strongly influenced by the range of commercial interests, the reputation, the reliability, the integrity andthe quality etc. of the possibleother parties.Slide 9Guidelines for Strategic Decisions. The second of thestrategic decisions which must bemade is how quick the negotiations should proceed. The most dominateparty should choose a quick deal.The weaker party should hold back.If there is no clear pattern of the stronger or weaker party, thestrategy should be to hold back.Slide 10Quick Deals. For a quick deal, there needs to be precisetargets and very clear views aboutthe extent to which compromises could be made. What style should be usedto negotiate? If a quick dealstrategy is adopted, the need is to move quickly and the style should beto our advantage. If the strategy isto hold back, then the option is to either be creative oriented or advantage oriented. Each negotiator has their own strengths, and it is desirable that they should negotiatein a style which reflects those strengths.Slide 11Negotiation Strategies.A s trategy is a plan of techniquesand tactics used in the actualprocess of an action, in this case a negotiation. Techniques to planare:- when to move, where to go andhow fast to go. These are all determined by certain conditions. To accomplish the aims in a negotiation, the inexperienced negotiator’sstrategy will be limited to a fewsimple and obvious devices e.g price, terms etc.Slide 12How and Where Strategy. The how and where strategy involvesthe method of application and thearea of application. Often it is advantageous to use two or morestrategic approaches in the same negotiation. Some of the main formsof the how and where strategy are:- participation, crossroads, blanketing, salami, agency and shifting levels.Slide 13Participation. Is theform of strategy where we enlist the help of the other party on our behalf.Slide 14Crossroads. With the crossroads strategy either party may introduce several matters into the discussion so that there can be concessions on one hand and gains onthe other.Slide 15Blanketing. Inblanketing, one technique is to tryto cover as large an area as possibleto achieve a breakthrough in one or more places.Slide 16Salami. The strategy of salami means a slice at a time. This strategy involves dealing with an issue bit by bit, slice by slice.Slide 17Agency. The agency strategy is when you ask someone else to conduct the negotiation on your behalf.Slide 18Shifting Levels. And finally we come to the final type of strategy which is shifting levels. Shifting levels deals with a strategy or tactic in which involvement in the problem is changed to a higher or lower level.Slide 19Reminder. You will have to use all different types of strategies when negotiating. You will have to adapt to the other party and to the situation.Lesson 13 Chapter 11Slide 1Title Page – different business cultures and negotiations.A business negotiator should have some understanding of different cultures, customs and business conventions of different countries.Slide 2There are two main rules of international business. The first is that the seller is expected to adapt to the buyer. The second is that the visitor is expected to observe the local customs. To observe the local customs doesn’t mean to copy the local behavior, just be yourself. But of course, you should include being aware of local sensitivities and generally honoring local customs, habits and traditions.Slide 3One classification of organizational style distinguishes between people who are task-oriented and people who are people-oriented. People who are purely task-oriented are concerned entirely with achieving a business goal. They are not concerned about the affect that their actions have on the people that they will come into contact with. As negotiators they will be very tough, very aware of tactical ploys and anxious to make maximum use of them. The American business culture is usually very task or achievement oriented.Slide 4People-oriented persons, on the other hand, are highly concerned about the well-being of those who work for them or around them. In this respect, they givetime to some small talk before the meeting starts because they believe this will improve communication and lay the basis for possible future relationships.Slide 5This can be a greatdivide between business cultures. Deal-focused people are basicallytask-oriented while relationship-focused people are more people-oriented. Conflicts can arise when deal-focused export marketers try to do business with prospect from relationship-focused markets.Slide 6Many relationship-focused people find deal-focused types pushy, aggressive and offensively blunt. In return, deal-focused types often consider their relation-ship focused counterparts vague and unintelligible.。

西京学院本科毕业设计(论文)外文资料翻译教学单位:经济系专业:国际经济与贸易(本)学号:0700090641姓名:王欢外文出处:《国际商务谈判》附件:1.译文;2.原文;3.评分表2010年11月1.译文译文(一)国际商务谈判是国际商务活动中,处于不同国家或不同地区的商务活动当事人为了达成某笔交易,彼此通过信息交流,就交易的各项要件进行协商的行为过程。
可以说国际商务谈判是一种在对外经贸活动中普遍存在的﹑解决不同国家的商业机构之间不可避免的利害冲突﹑实现共同利益的一种必不可少的手段。
国际商务谈判与一般贸易谈判具有共性,即以经济利益为目的,以价格为谈判核心。
因为价格的高低最直接﹑最集中的表明了谈判双方的利益切割,而且还由于谈判双方在其他条件,诸如质量﹑数量﹑付款形式﹑付款时间等利益要素上的得与失,在很多情况下都可以折算为一定的价格,并通过价格的升降而得到体现或予以补偿。
在国际买卖合同中价格术语包括单价和总价。
单价则是由计量单位,单价,计价货币以及贸易术语构成。
例如,一个价格术语可以这样来说:“每吨CIF伦敦1500美元包含3%佣金”。
总价格是合同中交易的总额。
在谈判过程中,应该由谁先出价,如何回应对方的报价,做出多少让步才适当,到最后双方达成都能接受的协议,整个这一过程被称之为谈判之舞。
通常情况下,谈判者的目标价位不会有重叠:卖方想为自己的产品或服务争取的价格,会高出买方愿意付出的价格。
然而,有时候谈判者的保留点却会相互重叠,也就是说大多数买方愿意付出的价格都会高于卖方可以接受的最低价格,在这种议价区间的前提下,谈判的最终结果会落在高于卖方的保留点而低于买方的保留点之间的某个点上。
议价区间可以为正数,也可以为负数。
在正议价区间,谈判者的保留点会互相重叠的,即买方愿意出的最高价格高于卖方可以接受的最低价格。
这意味着谈判者能达成协议的话,那么结果肯定在这个区间之内。
负议价区间可能根本不存在或是负数,这可能会造成花费巨大的时间来做一件毫无结果的协议,谈判者将会浪费时间成本。
国际商务谈判(英文)Chapter 10 International Investment Nego
• The prenegotiation phase includes making the first contacts with the company that could be a partner, assessing the compatibility of the two parties′ objectives, ascertaining if they have common views on market strategy, conducting the feasibility study, and signing a letter of intent.
国际商务谈判(英文)Chapter 10 International Investment Negotiations
Introduction
• The creation of a joint venture is probably among the most widespread and complex negotiations that exists nowadays, and paradoxically one of the least studied or understood. Two companies, one foreign and one domestic, endeavor to build a common project that integrates multiple dimensions: economic and human, organizational and cultural.
• The negotiation also addresses issues concerning the management of the joint venture, its decision making structure, its policy for personnel management, and the conditions for its termination. At this stage the parties also explore such issues as domestic and export pricing of the future products for sale.

SECTION3Black-box Theory and Business Negotiation Translated by Skeady.ZIn the middle of 20th century, there appears a new science—the Control Theory which was found by American scientist Norbert Wiener. Control means using this method to restrict the subject moving in a certain district, or makes it run in a certain pattern. The reason why the Control Theory plays such an important role in modern society is that it achieves great goals in many fields. If we use the Control Theory in the field of the business negotiation, negotiators can program it more so that the best patter can run best and reach ideal bourn.In the Control Theory, the unknown district or system is usually called “black-box”, while the well-known one is called “white-box” and the one between these two boxes is called “gray-box”. Generally, there widely exist some problems which we can’t see but can control. For example, when we don’t know which key is to t he door, we usually try one by one in order to make it, but we don’t need to pick a lock to see its structure. Actually there are a lot things which are believed not as “black-box” but the truth is opposite. The experts of the Control Theory give an exampl e of bicycles for this. We suppose the bicycle is not a “black-box”, because we can see every part of it clearly. But the fact is that we are just considering ourselves in the right. The link of pedal and wheels is the atomic force to make the metal atoms get together, which we can’t see. However, it’s enough for children who ride it to know how to depress the pedal in order to turn the wheels.As a result,” black-box” represents the world we don’t know but we should explore. To solve this riddle, we can’t open the “black-box” but to survey the variable of its input and output for the law discovering, and create control of it. We take an experienced negotiator who represented his client to negotiate the claims with the agent of insurance company as an example. He was not sure about the compensation which was what we call “black-box”. So the negotiator decided to speak less and observe more.The agent of the insurance company said:” Sir, in such a circumstance, we conventionally only compensate 100 dollars. What’s your opinion?” The negotiator didn’t say a word. After a while he said:” Sorry, we can’t accept.” The agent said:” Well, we will give you another 100 dollars.” The negotiator kept silent and wagged his head. The agent was a little worried and said: “Then 400 dollars.” But the negotiator still kept silent and seemed dissatisfied. So the agent said:” What 500 dollars?” The negotiators kept his silent like that and the agent had to raise the claim indemnity again and again. It was end with a950-dollar-indemnity finally. In fact, his client’s goal is to get only 300 dollars. The wisdom of the negotiator is to explore the unknown district of “black-box” and know when he should insist and hold the interests tightly, on the other hand he knows when to give it up too. So he gets maximum interests for his client.As “white-box” is a well-known world for us, we can ensure the variables and the relationship of input and output first. When we know the inner structure of the system deeply, we can express the str ucture’s relationship in an exact way. That’s “net of white-box”. If we use the “net of white-box” to analyze the negotiation, we can rule the known system through “white-box” and limit the uncertain situation, in order to master the negotiation situations better.We can see from the Figure 2-3 that the overlap in the center, the square black box, is the solidified interests of the two sides. The negotiation in this aspect is not conflict, because they are on the same side. The matters of interest to both sides are how to enlarge this common area.In the two side of the central net district, it’s the interest of one side, which they can negotiate. That’s the vertical bar and horizontalbar in the rectangular frame which we should put into the central part as more as possible to increase their common interests. At the same time, they should discuss the divisive issues in the common district and the effect of the negotiation which immediately concerns about the agreement they need to sign. Although the interest of the two sides in this district is different, they can negotiate settlement.Generally it’s what they can’t reach an agreement outside the common district. But we can try our best to put this part into the common which is negotiable. It subsidy th e principled negotiation, that’s “enlarge the interests”.At last, let’s talk about “grey-box”. The most problems in the real world are “grey-box”, so it’s with the business negotiations. Because in our thoughts, we have a partial realization about a system, but the other parts are unknown. We need to make full use of what we have acknowledged to explore the past of the system and try all means to master the inner situation of it. For example, when we are bargaining for a case, we are told that they can only surrender 8% of all interests at most. At this time, will you believe or not? Then you need to judge according to what you know, and solve the 8% “grey-box”.。
【经济类文献翻译】国际商务谈判
外文文献翻译International Business NegotiationsPervez Ghauri & Jean-Claude UsunierWhen two people communicate, they rarely talk about precisely the same subject, for effective meaning is flavored by each person’s own cognitive world and cultural conditioning. Negotiation is the process by which at least two parties try to reach an agreement on matters of mutual interest. The negotiation process proceeds as an interplay of perception, information processing, and reaction, all of which turn on images of reality (accurate or not), on implicit assumptions regarding the issue being negotiated, and on an underlying matrix of conventional wisdom, beliefs, and social expectations. Negotiations involve two dimensions: a matter of substance and the process. The latter is rarely a matter of relevance when negotiations are conducted within the same cultural setting. Only when dealing with someone from another country with a different cultural background does process usually become a critical barrier to substance; in such settings process first needs to be established before substantive negotiations can commence. This becomes more apparent when the negotiation process is international, when cultural differences must be bridged.When negotiating internationally, this translates into anticipating culturally related ideas that are most likely to be understood by a person of a given culture. Discussions are frequently impeded because the two sides seem to be pursuing different paths of logic; in any cross cultural context, the potential for misunderstanding and talking past each other is great. Negotiating internationally almost certainly means having to cope with new and inconsistent information, usually accompanied by new behavior, social environments, and even sights and smells. The greater the cultural differences, the more likely barriers to communication and misunderstandings become. When one takes the seemingly simple process of negotiations into a cross-cultural context, it becomes even more complex and complications tend to grow exponentially. It is naive indeed to venture into international negotiation with the belief that “after all, people are pretty much alike everywhere and behave much as we do.” Even if they wear the same clothes you do, speak English as well as (or even better than) you, and prefer many of the comforts and attributes of American life (food, hotels, sports), it would be foolish to view amember of another culture as a brother in spirit. That negotiation style you use so effectively at home can be ineffective and inappropriate when dealing with people from another cultural background; in fact its use can often result in more harm than gain. Heightened sensitivity, more attention to detail, and perhaps even changes in basic behavioral patterns are required when working in another culture.Members of one culture may focus on different aspects of an agreement (e.g., legal, financial) than may members of another culture (personal, relationships). The implementation of a business agreement may be stressed in one culture, while the range and prevention of practical problems may be emphasized in another culture. In some cultures, the attention of people is directed more toward the specific details of the agreement (documenting the agreement), while other cultures may focus on how the promises can be kept (process and implementation). Americans negotiate a contract; the Japanese negotiate a personal relationship. Culture forces people to view and value differently the many social interactions inherent in fashioning any agreement. Negotiations can easily break down because of a lack of understanding of the cultural component of the negotiation process. Negotiators who take the time to understand the approach that the other parties are likely to use and to adapt their own styles to that one are likely to be more effective negotiators.American and Russian people are not similar; their ethical attitudes do not coincide: they evaluate behavior differently. What an American may consider normative, positive behavior (negotiating and reaching a compromise with an enemy), a Russian perceives as showing cowardice, weakness, and unworthiness; the word “deal”has a strong negative connotation, even today in contemporary Russia. Similarly, for Russians, compromise has negative connotation; principles are supposed to be inviolable and compromise is a matter of integrity (The Russians are not alone here: a Mexican will not compromise as a matter of honor, dignity, and integrity; likewise, an Arab fears loss of manliness if he compromises.) A negotiation is treated as a whole without concessions. At the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) talks, the Americans thought they had an agreement (meaning conclusive commitment), while the Russians said it was an understanding (meaning an expression of mutual viewpoint or attitude). When the Americans thought they had an understanding, the Russians said it was a procedural matter, meaning they had agreed to a process for conducting the negotiation. Different cultural systems can produce divergent negotiating styles--styles shaped by each nation’s culture, geography, history, and political system. Unless you see the world through the other’s eyes (nomatter how similar they appear to you), you may not be seeing or hearing the same. No one can usually avoid bringing along his or her own cultural assumptions, images, and prejudices or other attitudinal baggage into any negotiating situation. The way one succeeds in cross cultural negotiations is by fully understanding others, using that understanding to one’s own advantage to realize what each party wants from the negotiations, and to turn the negotiations into a win-win situation for both sides. A few potential problems often encountered during a cross-cultural negotiation include ( Frank, 1992):Insufficient understanding of different ways of thinking.Insufficient attention to the necessity to save face.Insufficient knowledge of the host country--including history, culture, government, status of business, image of foreigners.Insufficient recognition of political or other criteria.Insufficient recognition of the decision-making process.Insufficient understanding of the role of personal relations and personalities.Insufficient allocation of time for negotiations.Over two-thirds of U.S.-Japanese negotiation efforts fail even though both sides want to reach a successful business agreement (The U.S. Department of Commerce is even more pessimistic; it estimates that for every successful American negotiation with the Japanese, there are twenty-five failures.) In fact, these numbers hold true for most cross-cultural meetings. Often barriers to a successful agreement are of a cultural nature rather than of an economical or legal nature. Since each side perceives the other from its own ethnocentric background and experience, often neither side fully comprehends why the negotiations failed. It is precisely this lack of knowledge concerning the culture and the “alien” and “unnatural” expectations of the other side that hinders effective negotiation with those from another culture.In cross-cultural negotiations, many of the rules taught and used domestically may not apply--especially when they may not be culturally acceptable to the other party. For most Western negotiators this includes the concepts of give and take, of bargaining, and even of compromise. The stereotypical, common Western ideal of a persuasive communicator--highly skilled in debate, able to overcome objections with verbal flair, an energetic extrovert--may be regarded by members of other cultures as unnecessarily aggressive, superficial, insincere, even vulgar and repressive. To other Americans, the valued American traits of directness and frankness show evidence of good intentions and personal convictions. To an American it is complimentary to becalled straightforward and aggressive. This is not necessarily so, however, for members of other cultures. To describe a person as “aggressive”is a derogatory characterization to a British citizen. To the Japanese, those very same traits indicate lack of confidence in one’s convictions and insincerity. Instead, terms such as thoughtful, cooperative, considerate, and respectful instill positives in the Japanese and many Asian cultures.Domestically, the study of negotiation tends to encompass business relationships between parties, tactics, bargaining strategies, contingency positions, and so on. However, in a cross-cultural context, besides the usual rules of negotiation, one has to be wary of fine nuances in relationships and practices and how they are perceived and executed by members of the other culture. The two business negotiators are separated from each other not only by physical features, a totally different language, and business etiquette, but also by a different way to perceive the world, to define business goals, to express thinking and feeling, to show or hide motivation and interests. From the other party’s perspective, for example, to some cultures Americans may appear aggressive and rude, while to others, those very same Americans appear calm and uninterested.1 The Art of NegotiationsThe word “negotiations”stems from the Roman word negotiari meaning “to carry on business” and is derived from the Latin root words neg (not) and otium (ease or leisure). Obviously it was as true for the ancient Romans as it is for most businesspersons of today that negotiations and business involves hard work. A modern definition of negotiation is two or more parties with common (and conflicting) interests who enter into a process of interaction with the goal of reaching an agreement (preferably of mutual benefit). John Kenneth Galbraith said “Sex apart, negotiation is the most common and problematic involvement of one person with another, and the two activities are not unrelated.” Negotiations are a decision-making process that provides opportunities for the parties to exchange commitments or promises through which they will resolve their disagreements and reach a settlement.A negotiation is two or more parties striving to agree when their objectives do not coincide.Negotiation consists of two distinct processes: creating value and claiming value. Creating value is a cooperative process whereby the parties in the negotiation seek to realize the full potential benefit of the relationship. Claiming value is essentially a competitive process. The key to creating value is finding interests that the parties havein common or that complement each other, then reconciling and expanding upon these interests to create a win-win situation. Parties at the negotiating table are interdependent. Their goals are locked together. A seller cannot exist without a buyer. The purpose of a negotiation is a joint decision-making process through which the parties create a mutually acceptable settlement. The objective is to pursue a win-win situation for both parties.Negotiations take place within the context of the four Cs: common interest, conflicting interests, compromise, and criteria (Moran and Stripp, 1991). Common interest considers the fact that each party in the negotiation shares, has, or wants something that the other party has or does. Without a common goal, there would be no need for negotiation. Conflict occurs when people have separate but conflicting interests. Areas of conflicting interests could include payment, distribution, profits, contractual responsibilities, and quality. Compromise involves resolving areas of disagreement. Although a win-win negotiated settlement would be best for both parties, the compromises that are negotiated may not produce the result. The criteria include the conditions under which the negotiations take place. The negotiation process has few rules of procedure. Rules of procedure are as much a product of negotiation as the issues. Over time, the four Cs change and the information, know-how, and alternatives available to the negotiating international company and the host country also change, resulting in a fresh interpretation of the four Cs, the environment, and the perspective. In essence, negotiation takes place within the context of the political, economic, social, and cultural systems of a country. The theory of the negotiation process includes the following dimensions: (1) bargainer characteristics, (2) situational constraints, (3) the process of bargaining, and (4) negotiation outcomes. This theory is based on actors who share certain values and beliefs based on their culture. These actors function in business and economic situations that also have cultural influences, and they act in certain culturally inscribed ways. We bargain when:1. A conflict of interest exists between two or more parties; that is, what is, whatone wants is not necessarily what the other one wants.2. A fixed or set of rules or procedures for resolving the conflict does not exist,or the parties prefer to work outside of a set of rules to invent their own solution to the conflict.3. The parties, at least for the moment, prefer to search for agreement rather thanto fight openly, to have one side capitulate, to permanently break off contact, or to take their dispute to a higher authority to resolve it.In summary, negotiations primarily consists of five aspects: (1) goals: motivating the parties to enter; (2) the process of negotiating that involves communications and actions; (3) outcomes; (4) preexisting background factors of cultural traditions and relations; and (5) specific situational conditions under which the negotiation is conducted.2 VerbalLanguage is highly important. When people from different cultures communicate, culture-specific factors affect how they encode and decode their messages. Negotiators should check understanding periodically, move slowly, use questions liberally, and avoid slang and idioms. Even the discussion of negotiation, compromise, and agreement has different meanings to different cultures. Both the American and Korean meanings for the word “corruption”are negative; however in the United States, the word connotes being morally wrong while for the Koreans it implies being socially unfortunate. The Mexican will not compromise as a matter of honor, dignity, and integrity. The Arab fears loss of manliness if he compromises. In Russia, compromise has a negative connotation; principles are supposed to be inviolable and compromise is a matter of integrity. For Russians, a negotiation is treated as a whole without concessions.In the American culture, those who refuse to bargain are viewed as cold, secretive, and not really serious about conducting business. The Dutch are not hagglers; you should make your offer fairly close to your true asking price; if you start making large concessions you will lose their confidence. The Swedes are methodical, detailed individuals who are slow to change positions. Bargaining is not highly valued in Swedish culture; those who bargain, who attempt to negotiate by offering a higher price in order to concede to a lower price, can be viewed as untrustworthy, inefficient, or perhaps out for personal gain at the expense of others.3 Nonverbal Communications in Cross-Cultural NegotiationsNonverbal behavior may be defined as any behavior, intentional or unintentional, beyond the words themselves that can be interpreted by a receiver as having meaning. Nonverbal behaviors could include facial expressions, eye contact, gestures, body movements, posture, physical appearance, space, touch, and time usage. They are all different from culture to culture. Nonverbal behaviors either accompany verbalmessages or are used independently of verbal messages. They may affirm and emphasize or negate and even contradict spoken messages. Nonverbal behaviors are more likely to be used unconsciously and spontaneously because they are habitual and routine behaviors.The wide range of behaviors called nonverbal behavior can be divided into seven categories. Gestures, body movement, facial movement, and eye contact are combined in the kinesic code commonly called body language. Vocalics refers to call vocal activity other than the verbal context itself. Also called paralanguage, vocalics includes tone, volume, and sounds that are not words. Behaviors that involve touching are placed in the haptics code. The use of space is called proxemics, and the use of time is chronemics. Physical appearance includes body shape and size, as well as clothing and jewelry. Finally, artifacts refer to objects that are associated with a person, such as one’s desk, car, or books. It should be emphasized that these codes do not usually function independently or sequentially; rather, they work simultaneously. In addition, nonverbal behavior is always sending messages; we can not communicate without using them, although, at times, the messages may be ambiguous. This wide range of nonverbal behaviors serves various functions in all face-to-face encounters. Most important, emotional messages at the negotiating table are expressed nonverbally by gestures, tone of voice, or facial expressions. The other side’s interpretation of your statement depends on the nonverbal more than what was actually said. Nonverbal communications is significant.From: International Business Negotiations, 2001国际商务谈判伯维茨.高利, 简.科劳德.阿斯尼尔当两个人交流时,他们很少精确地谈论相同的问题,因为实际的意思会受到每个人认知的世界和文化熏陶的影响。

SECTION3Black-box Theory and Business Negotiation Translated by Skeady.ZIn the middle of 20th century, there appears a new science—the Control Theory which was found by American scientist Norbert Wiener. Control means using this method to restrict the subject moving in a certain district, or makes it run in a certain pattern. The reason why the Control Theory plays such an important role in modern society is that it achieves great goals in many fields. If we use the Control Theory in the field of the business negotiation, negotiators can program it more so that the best patter can run best and reach ideal bourn.In the Control Theory, the unknown district or system is usually called “black-box”, while the well-known one is called “white-box” and the one between these two boxes is called “gray-box”. Generally, there widely exist some problems which we can’t see but can control. For example, when we don’t know which key is to t he door, we usually try one by one in order to make it, but we don’t need to pick a lock to see its structure. Actually there are a lot things which are believed not as “black-box” but the truth is opposite. The experts of the Control Theory give an exampl e of bicycles for this. We suppose the bicycle is not a “black-box”, because we can see every part of it clearly. But the fact is that we are just considering ourselves in the right. The link of pedal and wheels is the atomic force to make the metal atoms get together, which we can’t see. However, it’s enough for children who ride it to know how to depress the pedal in order to turn the wheels.As a result,” black-box” represents the world we don’t know but we should explore. To solve this riddle, we can’t open the “black-box” but to survey the variable of its input and output for the law discovering, and create control of it. We take an experienced negotiator who represented his client to negotiate the claims with the agent of insurance company as an example. He was not sure about the compensation which was what we call “black-box”. So the negotiator decided to speak less and observe more.The agent of the insurance company said:” Sir, in such a circumstance, we conventionally only compensate 100 dollars. What’s your opinion?” The negotiator didn’t say a word. After a while he said:” Sorry, we can’t accept.” The agent said:” Well, we will give you another 100 dollars.” The negotiator kept silent and wagged his head. The agent was a little worried and said: “Then 400 dollars.” But the negotiator still kept silent and seemed dissatisfied. So the agent said:” What 500 dollars?” The negotiators kept his silent like that and the agent had to raise the claim indemnity again and again. It was end with a950-dollar-indemnity finally. In fact, his client’s goal is to get only 300 dollars. The wisdom of the negotiator is to explore the unknown district of “black-box” and know when he should insist and hold the interests tightly, on the other hand he knows when to give it up too. So he gets maximum interests for his client.As “white-box” is a well-known world for us, we can ensure the variables and the relationship of input and output first. When we know the inner structure of the system deeply, we can express the str ucture’s relationship in an exact way. That’s “net of white-box”. If we use the “net of white-box” to analyze the negotiation, we can rule the known system through “white-box” and limit the uncertain situation, in order to master the negotiation situations better.We can see from the Figure 2-3 that the overlap in the center, the square black box, is the solidified interests of the two sides. The negotiation in this aspect is not conflict, because they are on the same side. The matters of interest to both sides are how to enlarge this common area.In the two side of the central net district, it’s the interest of one side, which they can negotiate. That’s the vertical bar and horizontalbar in the rectangular frame which we should put into the central part as more as possible to increase their common interests. At the same time, they should discuss the divisive issues in the common district and the effect of the negotiation which immediately concerns about the agreement they need to sign. Although the interest of the two sides in this district is different, they can negotiate settlement.Generally it’s what they can’t reach an agreement outside the common district. But we can try our best to put this part into the common which is negotiable. It subsidy th e principled negotiation, that’s “enlarge the interests”.At last, let’s talk about “grey-box”. The most problems in the real world are “grey-box”, so it’s with the business negotiations. Because in our thoughts, we have a partial realization about a system, but the other parts are unknown. We need to make full use of what we have acknowledged to explore the past of the system and try all means to master the inner situation of it. For example, when we are bargaining for a case, we are told that they can only surrender 8% of all interests at most. At this time, will you believe or not? Then you need to judge according to what you know, and solve the 8% “grey-box”.。
