Dear vibrant Learners,

Chester L. Karrass, the author of many books on Negotiation, noted that "In business, you don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate." Negotiation is a tactical discourse between two or more parties that aims to resolve an amiable problem to both sides.

𝗟𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗱𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗡𝗲𝗴𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:

A wealthy eastern merchant passed away. The person indicated in his will that his wealth would be equally distributed among his three sons, but his most treasured camels would be divided oddly. According to the will, the eldest son would receive half of the camels, the middle son would receive one-third of the camels, and the youngest son would receive one-ninth of the camels. There were seventeen camels in the merchant. It was impossible to divide 17 camels into halves, thirds, or even ninths. As a result, the three sons began fighting over their rightful part of the camels.

The sons sought guidance from a wise man because they were unable to distribute the camel among themselves. The intelligent guy carefully listened to the predicament of the brothers. After analyzing the matter, the wise man brought one of his camels to join the merchant's seventeen camels, bringing the total number of camels to eighteen.

He then began reading the deceased father's will and dividing the camels. Nine is half of eighteen. As a result, he handed the oldest brother nine camels. Because one-third of eighteen equals six, he gave the middle son six camels. He gave the youngest son two camels because he received one-ninth of the eighteen camels. He dispersed seventeen camels after giving the sons nine, six, and two camels, respectively. The wise guy reclaimed his camel.

 

In the end, the dilemma is overcome when a guy can identify shared communion. The 18th camel, or shared communion, is the attitude of Negotiation and scope to the elucidation. It might sometimes be challenging. Nevertheless, the first step toward finding a solution is to think that one exists. People will not be able to get anywhere if they believe there is no panacea! Corollary, we should presume there is always a solution to a problem and be poised to negotiate.
