You can read more details about your final projects below:



1. Final Written Analysis (Individual work; 20% of your grade).


● Critical analysis of negotiation theory applied to real business negotiations


● Individual work - identify negotiator, schedule interview, creating interview questions, conducting interview, write report (465: 5-7pgs)


● A printed draft of your final report is
due in class on November 10 for peer review. Successful completion of in-class peer review on
November 10
is worth
5% of your final written report grade.


● Your final paper is (due November 17). Late assignments will be deducted one letter grade per day late.


FINAL WRITTEN ANALYSIS



You have been tasked with interviewing a negotiator about at least one negotiation that was (1) especially successful, (2) especially unsuccessful (3) a major learning experience or (4) particularly interesting. If time permits, you will interview them about more than one of these negotiations and incorporate the highlights of multiple negotiations into your final report.



● Your report should not only note the consistencies and contradictions between these perspectives, but also attempt to explain and/or resolve them through critical analysis of both views (e.g., is the theory constrained in ways not described in class? Does the negotiator work in an industry that makes the theory more or less applicable? How so?)


● The bulk of your report should compare the perspectives of the existing negotiation theories and research (e.g. from readings, class discussions and exercises) to the perspective of your interviewee. Apply the most relevant theories and research that you learned in your negotiation course to the interviewee’s experience.


● Include specific examples of the negotiator’s experiences that illustrate his or her point of view in your critical analysis.


● Include a one-paragraph executive summary of your report up front to provide an overview of your key findings.


● Also include a ‘key take-aways’ section toward end of your report in order to clearly summarize your findings.


● Properly cite the ideas of others both in-text and with a references page at the end.
