Bringing it all Together Fortunately, I wrote the bulk of this paper prior to the last negotiation, where I played the role of the Fox executive. This gave me a perfect opportunity to incorporate the above lessons and see whether they made me a better negotiator. The first step was to incorporate the spirit of Germany in my prep work. Rather than relying on mere conjectures, I opted to open my computer and look up the yearly revenues from merchandise, DVD sales, etc. stemming from the…

During the negotiation of Green Roof Inns case with Ce Tu, I was the owner of the property and I concealed some of the fact as well as the usage of money, in order to use the information asymmetry as a weapon to get a better deal.

The one thing I really liked about the participation part was that in the financing technology transfer for developing…
