LESSON NOTES
=============
The best way to visualize the interests of the two parties is as two circles – a Venn diagram. Where they overlap is the Scope for Agreement.
But we can also represent positions, BATNAs, and offers on a line.
There will be a gap between their offer and your offer
But you also need to add in your BATNA – your walk-away point – and theirs.
[BATNA = Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement]
This range gives the true SFN: Scope for Negotiation.
But each of you has a PSFN: Perceived Scope for Negotiation.
This is based on where you each perceive the other’s BATNA is
This can be wider or narrower than the true SFN
RECOMMENDED EXERCISE
======================
1. When you prepare for your next negotiation, think carefully about:
