What is the Harvard Concept?

From the Program on Negotiation, the Harvard Concept or “Getting to Yes, negotiating without giving in” offers you a framework, upon which you can conduct mor successful, fair, and efficient negotiations. At the same time, the relationship between yourselves and your negotiation partners can also be improved.

 

The Harvard Concept encompasses:

  • Dealing with our emotions and not mixing up our thoughts about the other person with our thoughts about the negotiation problem. 

  • Discussing our interests as well as those of the other party and not just sticking to a particular position. Exchanging information, wishes, motives and needs. 

  • Working together towards a solution and developing ideas from which both (or all) parties can profit. 

  • Agreeing upon and using criteria, be that statistics, laws, decisions by others, involving third parties, in order to reach a decision. 

  • Having an alternative plan or course of action should we not be able to reach agreement, thus being able to walk away.
