Strategy and Tactics of Distributive Bargaining CHAPTER TWO Strategy and Tactics of Distributive Bargaining (Slicing the Pie)

The Distributive Bargaining Situation Goals of one party are in fundamental, direct conflict to another party Resources are fixed and limited Maximizing one’s own share of resources is the goal

The Distributive Bargaining Situation Preparation—set a Target point, aspiration point Walkaway, resistance point Asking price, initial offer

The Distributive Bargaining Situation Party A - Seller Walkaway Point Target Point Asking Price Initial Offer Target Point Walkaway Point Party B - Buyer

The Role of Alternatives to a Negotiated Agreement Alternatives give the negotiator power to walk away from the negotiation If alternatives are attractive, negotiators can: Set their goals higher Make fewer concessions If there are no attractive alternatives: Negotiators have much less bargaining power

The Distributive Bargaining Situation Party A - Seller Walkaway Point Target Point Asking Price Alternative Alternative Initial Offer Target Point Walkaway Point Party B - Buyer

Negative Bargaining Zone Seller’s Bargaining Range Buyer’s Bargaining Range $5 $10 $15 $20 Negative Bargaining Zone BT, Buyer’s Target Point BR, Buyer’s Walkaway SR, Seller’s Walkaway ST, Seller’s Target Point

The Most Commonly Asked Questions Should I reveal my reservation point? Should I lie about my reservation point? Should I try to manipulate the other party’s reservation point? Should I make a “final offer” or commit to a position?

Fundamental Strategies Push for settlement near opponent’s resistance point Get the other party to change their resistance point If settlement range is negative, either: Get the other side to change their resistance point Modify your own resistance point Convince the other party that the settlement is the best possible

Keys to the Strategies The keys to implementing any of the four strategies are: Discovering the other party’s resistance point Influencing the other party’s resistance point

Tactical Tasks of Negotiators Assess outcome values and the costs of termination for the other party Manage the other party’s impressions Modify the other party’s perceptions Manipulate the actual costs of delay or termination

Assess Outcome Values and the Costs of Termination for the Other Party Indirectly Determine information opponent used to set: Target Resistance points Directly Opponent reveals the information

Manage the Other Party’s Impressions Screen your behavior: Say and do as little as possible Direct action to alter impressions Present facts that enhance one’s position

Modify the Other Party’s Perceptions Make outcomes appear less attractive Make the cost of obtaining goals appear higher Make demands and positions appear more or less attractive to the other party –whichever suits your needs

Manipulate the Actual Costs of Delay or Termination Plan disruptive action Raise the costs of delay to the other party Form an alliance with outsiders Involve (or threaten to involve) other parties who can influence the outcome in your favor Schedule manipulations One party is usually more vulnerable to delaying than the other

Positions Taken During Negotiations Opening offer Where will you start? Opening stance What is your attitude? Competitive? Moderate? Initial concessions Should any be made? If so, how large?

Positions Taken During Negotiations The role of concessions Without them, there is either capitulation or deadlock Patterns of concession making The pattern contains valuable information Final offer (making a commitment) “This is all I can do”

Thompson’s Pie-Slicing Strategies (I) Strategy 1: Assess your BATNA and improve it Strategy 2: Determine your reservation point, but do not reveal it Strategy 3: Research the other party’s BATNA and estimate their reservation point Strategy 4: Set high aspirations (be realistic, but optimistic) Strategy 5: Make the first offer (if you are prepared) Strategy 6: Immediately reanchor if the other party opens first

Thompson’s Pie-Slicing Strategies (II) Strategy 7: Plan your concessions Pattern of concessions Magnitude of concessions (GRIT model) Timing of concessions Strategy 8: Use an objective-appearing rationale to support your offers Strategy 9: Appeal to norms of fairness Strategy 10: Do not fall for the “even split” ploy

Closing the Deal Provide alternatives (2 or 3 packages) Assume the close Split the difference Exploding offers Deal sweeteners

Dealing with Typical Hardball Tactics Four main options: Ignore them Discuss them Respond in kind Co-opt the other party (befriend them)

Typical Hardball Tactics Good Cop/Bad Cop Lowball/Highball Bogey (playing up an issue of little importance) The Nibble (asking for a number of small concessions to)

Typical Hardball Tactics Chicken Intimidation Aggressive Behavior Snow Job (overwhelm the other party with information)

Summary Negotiators need to: Set a clear target and resistance points Understand and work to improve their BATNA Start with good opening offer Make appropriate concessions Manage the commitment process
