The Prize Money

The Prize Money

Imagine yourself in a group of twelve strangers, sitting around a table.
You have been invited to play a game. The host walks in and announces that he will offer $100 to each of the first two people who can persuade the person sitting opposite to get up, walk around the table and stand behind his chair.
What is your strategy to win this prize money and how much you can win?

Negotiation is an important life skill

We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.

If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.

“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
