Without quality preparation, even the most amazing ideas are not perfectly passable. Even good negotiators, who we consider masters of improvisation, still hone their communication and persuasiveness. It is therefore necessary to always determine the initial intention and think about the expected intentions of the opponent. It never hurts to have a way to retreat either. This is not a sign of weak courage, but of the ability to think tactically. Every military leader knows that it is best to retreat to pre-arranged positions. An experienced negotiator offers a "mutually beneficial agreement" in such a creative way that most of the benefits remain on his side. He can reveal cards at the beginning, during or at the end of a meeting. Alternatively, they may not detect them at all. He can conceal certain facts, he can flaunt his credentials, or he can be completely honest. So as not to reveal his minimum requirements. Preparing for negotiations requires an extremely broad scope, as it is often the most important thing in the negotiations themselves. The hardest but most important skill is to keep your emotions under control when overcoming our opponent's disagreement. It is not easy, especially when the opponent slips to rudeness or insults.
