  • PAJLO
  • Alternative Dispute Resolution
CONT

… to avoid the common problems associated with bargaining over positions, the negotiators will take a "soft" approach : treating the participants as friends, seeking agreement at almost any cost, and offering concessions easily in the interests of preserving(or creating) a good relationship with the other side. Soft negotiation will trust the other side, and will be open and honest about their bottom line.

Subject field(s)
  • PAJLO
  • Alternative Dispute Resolution
CONT

Bargaining in good faith does not require a willingness to make concessions, and is consistent with adopting a hard line. It implies preparedness to take seriously offers and proposals made by the other side, and to take account of their arguments. Inability to reach an agreement is not evidence of bad faith.
