negotiations

in problem solving, negotiations is a big part.  Most people have a hard time trying to come to an agreement. The thing about negotiations is that people need to sacrifice on both sides in order to get things done.  But, i think that most people don't want to give up anything.  for example, in a group project, you might have only  a certain amount of time to say what you need to say in your presentation.  so, at times, you need to cut out stuff to make the time manageable.  People might have a different opinion about what is important to cut out and what isnt.  it's important that people know how to compromise and learn how to give a little to get a little.  in some cases, especially in some that i have seen, groups dismantle because they can't come to agreements on both sides.  a real life example, was when the referees were on strike.  the referee's were trying to bargain with the owners on how much they were going to make.  in the end, both couldn't comprise on what to give up, so they split.  in the end, both sides were hurt.  the fans were upset at the nfl and the referees were out of a job.  it's real important that both sides know how to give a little but without having to lose a lot.
