You have decided to open your own retail store that will sell shoes, specifically high-end fashion sandals. You have contacted 5 manufacturers with the intent to negotiate with each and the 3 that give you the best deal to sell in your store. You have set up to meet with each on the same day, meeting with manufacturer A at 9am, B at 11am, C at 1pm, D at 3pm and E at 5pm. Your concerns are the quality, the number of models available, the price (and price break) they will give you, terms of payment, shipping costs, and any advertising support.
As you psych yourself up the for meetings with each of the manufacturers, you review your perceptions of the manufacturers.
EXPLAIN how perception affects our attitudes, beliefs, goals and decisions.
EXPLAIN what is a common assumption we make regarding perceptions and why it can be harmful in negotiations.
DISCUSS and provide an example of how attribution appears in negotiation.
