Our need for accordance of our beliefs, statements expressed in public, with our acts is so great that we strongly protect our statement. Once involved we maintain our involvement in a particular case. Our earlier submission (e.g. doing someone a little favour) increases the chance of doing a much greater favour in the futurę.
Conclusions for a futurę negotiator:
• lnvolve your partner into the talk, e.g. by leading it in a way that encourages them to speak morę
• Make them interested in your offer
• When you recognise real needs and the way of thinking of your partner, ask him confirming questions, that is questions which cause your partner to agree with you.
• Create opportunities for the other party to enumerate and describe in their own words the advantages of your offer.
