The Importance of Real-World Negotiation Studies
Many negotiation studies have been criticized for their lack of real-world applicability, as they often rely on lab-based experiments that fail to capture the complexities of actual negotiations. In contrast, a study by Neil Rackman examined 102 real-life negotiations among skilled professionals such as union representatives and managers. This research highlighted not only the behaviors of effective negotiators but also the shortcomings of average ones in diverse, high-stakes contexts. By focusing on real-world scenarios, this study provides deeper insights into negotiation practices that lead to genuine success.
