point is — then determine if it is really worth fighting for in the bigger picture.
Following the five rules above will eliminate a large amount of futile negotiation on things that don’t matter, or things that matter much more for one side than the other. The goal of any negotiation is to reach agreement, but unfortunately the journey there is usually painful. We find ourselves “stuck” on terms or conditions we feel are must-haves, and lose perspective as to why we want the things we think we want. It does not need to be like that. Focus on the two or three scenarios that really matter for each side and have reasonable probability of being realized, as opposed to every edge scenario. In the end it probably won’t be a contract that saves you. It will be the quality of your relationship, your rationality, and, yes, your ability to do effective subsequent negotiation (definitive documents are rarely definitive). The reality is that you are more likely to get a fair deal — and even get the opportunity, from time to time, to have your cake and eat it too — if you stay disciplined on the underlying architecture and rationality of each negotiation point. Good luck, and happy negotiating.
