Negotiation is the key to getting what you want and deserve. This talk will provide the most influential ideas in business regarding negotiation and empower the audience to be effective negotiators. In UX we negotiate on behalf of users throughout the development life cycle. We do this as we work with team members, stakeholders and clients; and those skills are especially helpful when we make difficult-to-hear recommendations. Unfortunately, many of us are not taught skills that will help us negotiate well. This session will provide the audience with tools to become effective negotiators in their personal and professional lives.

Notes de l'éditeur
- According to Findings From A List Apart Survey 2009, a poll created by and for Web designers, 82.6% of Web designers are male. Ironically, 66.5% of the same respondents stated there is “definitely not” a gender bias in the design field. http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2010/11/12/gender-disparities-in-the-design-field/
- When asked to pick metaphors for the process of negotiating, men picked "winning a ballgame" and a "wrestling match," while women picked "going to the dentist."
- Time Differences- Two different orientations to time exist across the world: monchronic and polychronic. Personal Space- Certain cultures, including Mediterranean, Arab, and Latin American, are more tactile and allow more touching. Asian, indigenous American, Canadian, and U.S. cultures tend to discourage touching outside of intimate situations. Certain cultures allow cross-gender touching, including the United States, while same-gender touching is less acceptable. These rules change in Japan, where women are frequently seen holding hands, but not men. In the Mediterranean, it is common to see men holding hands or touching in public, but not women. Greeting rituals fit with these patterns, so awareness of local norms is important for negotiators. Eye Contact- In United States and Canadian dominant culture settings as well as many Arab cultures, eye contact is taken as a sign of reliability and trustworthiness. In North American indigenous settings, eye contact may be seen as disrespectful and inappropriate. Similarly, in Asian settings, looking down is usually interpreted as a sign of respect. Beyond these generalizations is a great deal of complexity. Lederach observes, for example, that in Central America, a slight movement of the eyes may indicate embarrassment, showing respect, or disagreement."[5] Nonverbal communication- In intercultural studies, Japanese negotiators have been observed to use the most silence, Americans a moderate amount, and Brazilians almost none at all.[6] Touching may convey closeness in some contexts and create offense in others. Power Distance- power distance to describe the degree of deference and acceptance of unequal power between people.Cultures where there is a comfort with high power distance are those where some people are considered superior to others because of their social status, gender, race, age, education, birth, personal achievements, family background or other factors. Cultures with low power distance tend to assume equality among people, and focus more on earned status than ascribed status. Uncertainty Avoidance- has to do with the way national cultures relate to uncertainty and ambiguity, and therefore, how well they may adapt to change. Generally, countries that show the most discomfort with ambiguity and uncertainty include Arab, Muslim, and traditional African countries, where high value is placed on conformity and safety, risk avoidance, and reliance on formal rules and rituals. Trust tends to be vested only in close family and friends. It may be difficult for outsider negotiators to establish relationships of confidence and trust with members of these national cultures. Masculine-Feminine- the degree to which a culture values assertiveness or nurturing and social support. The terms also refer to the degree to which socially prescribed roles operate for men and women. Hofstede rated countries and regions such as Japan and Latin America as preferring values of assertiveness, task-orientation, and achievement. In these cultures, there tend to be more rigid gender roles and "live to work" orientations. In countries and regions rated feminine such as Scandinavia, Thailand, and Portugal, values of cooperation, nurturing, and relationship solidarity with those less fortunate prevail, and the ethic is more one of "work to live."
- Maria 7 years of experience Job search as she’d like to try something new (same city) Finds a company and position she likes and applies Phone interview goes well In person interview goes very well Receives an offer of 95k per year with 2 weeks vacation This is a raise, but she’s not excited. She expected more – she had heard a raise of 10-20% was possible with a job change. Should she negotiate?
- The Power Position- The power position is at the head of the table. Everyone in the meeting can see you. From this seat you can best facilitate the flow of the meeting. The other end- The seat immediately opposite the Chair is the second power position. This seat tends to be reserved for the guest. It is visible to all and a good location for people who need to pop into the meeting to present specific items on the agenda. The Flanking Position-The individuals who sit next to the Chair have the ear of the Chair. When you sit in this position you can influence the flow of the meeting by assisting the Chair. You can draw attention towards or away from topics. You can prompt a speeding up or slowing down of the agenda. The Middle Few- You may want to sit in the middle next to individuals with opposing view points to soften or mitigate their opposition. Sit closer to the Chair and your opposition has to talk over or through you. Seating arrangements for negotiations should take norms for space into account. In general, Americans tend to talk with people seated opposite them, or at an angle. For the Chinese, these arrangements may lead them to feel alienated and uneasy. They may prefer to converse while sitting side by side.
- If emotional ploys are used to intimidate you or the other party is being pushy or attacking there are options: Ignore their attempts Discuss the negotiation process and what you expect from them Use a team to negotiate Not everyone is intimidated by the same things Team can help when emotions run high
