Negotiation Glossary & Terms

Whether you have attended a Karrass Negotiation Training Seminar or not, negotiations can get complicated. Understanding the basic negotiating terms and concepts is one way to prepare yourself for negotiations. Dr. Chester L. Karrass began this company to help business people master the strategies, tactics, and psychological insights of negotiating. It's understood however, that negotiations take place outside of the business place, often influencing personal relationships and your everyday life. Browse through our extensive negotiation glossary of terms and definitions to better prepare yourself for the negotiating you will encounter in your day to day life.
