NEGOTIATION SKILLS

 
it is a negotiation case where I will represent the seller Mr. Robert in the case study I will attach.

the question is the following:

Please prepare a plan for the upcoming negotiation.
This should include (each point carries equal marks):
1. The seller’s BATNA, an estimate of the buyer’s BATNA , and an analysis of the interests of both the companies and the individuals involved in the meeting.
2. An agenda for the meeting, plus an opening statement (often called an incentive statement) with approximate timings, assume the negotiation will last 90 minutes. The incentive statement should be no longer than 200 words, and should outline all of the key issues to be addressed during the meeting, and should be framed in such a way as to align with the interests of the buyer.
3. You can attend with up to 4 (fictitious) colleagues from Info Systems. How many people would you choose to take with you? What negotiation roles would you allocate to each (e.g. Chairperson, lead negotiator etc).
4. What authority would you seek from Info Sys in order to reach agreement (I.e. Would you want the power to agree a deal on the day or would you seek approval from further up the organisation).
5. What negotiating tactics would you seek to employ in order to reach the most value creating agreement.

BATNA stands for : best alternative to a negotiated agreement.

Week 7

 
Please answer question 1 and Question 2 separately DO NOT answer as a whole.

Question 1—Figure 10.1 in our textbook (along with associated writing on the topic) describes the 10 principal components related to strategy execution, which comprise the focus of the final three chapters in the first half of our book. In this forum, you need to select two of the 10 components to discuss in your post (be clear which ones–#1?, #2?), and then locate at least one scholarly (peer-reviewed) journal source that supports each selected component in the strategy execution process (for a total of minimum two sources—one for each component you selected). What does the scholarship or research reveal about the importance of the components you selected? Why are they important as strategic elements? Remember to use only scholarly articles (minimum two). However, three total scholarly sources are required with your post, so you may utilize your textbook as needed to support your informed assertions.

Question 2—[In each week’s DQ#2, we will examine a case from our textbook and available resources, and discuss some pertinent questions that will support our skill development in the use of strategic planning instruction from the current week. These DQ#2’s do not require citations and references; they are intended to engage your critical thinking and assess your synthesis of key topics for the week.]

This forum will examine the e-commerce giant Amazon. In case you do not already purchase products through Amazon, take a few moments to locate overview information on the web. Then, go to our course textbook (Thompson, Peteraf, Gamble & Strickland, 2015), Part 2, Case 28, and read the case regarding Amazon’s Big Data Strategy (C-403 – C-413). From the case, answer the following questions, being as specific as possible:

Describe elements of Amazon’s corporate strategy that appear most significant.
What do you determine to be the key(s) to Amazon.com’s successful strategy execution?
How do the five components of the “Big Data Process” (Exhibit 4, C-409) contribute to Amazon’s involvement with other companies? Why is this important?
Finally, based on your assessment, what can you apply to organizational work in your sector from what you in the Amazon case?

mixed methods

the emphasis of pragmatism is on warranted beliefs instead of universal truth. The warranted beliefs are results of repeated experiences of predicable outcomes. It could be said that by taking the same actions in similar situations and the consequences of those actions, the likely outcomes of one way versus another will be learned. The second element is actions are linked to consequences in ways that are open to change. This entails the situational nature of action. Pragmatists believe that the consequences and meaning of action can change when a situation changes. Pragmatists also believe that it is not possible to exactly experience the same situation twice and the meaning of acts changes over time as a result of ongoing experience. Hence, the beliefs about how to act in a situation are continually evolving. Such beliefs are called warranted beliefs. The third element is action depends on world views that are socially shared sets of beliefs. It is about treating beliefs as interconnected instead of isolated and the world view, which shapes the experience, as a product of experience. Although people have different experiences and thus worldviews, still, varied degrees of shared experiences among people leading to different degrees of shared beliefs can be found. When two people share similar beliefs about a particular situation, they are likely to act in similar ways and have similar meanings to the outcomes of actions. Consequently, the world views are both individually unique at a detailed level and socially shared at a broader level.

Phase Four represents the final phase of our research. It involves combining the findings obtained from Phase Two (Quantitative) and Phase Three (Qualitative). To draw the interpretation, three sets of data were combined in the discussion chapter.
