Written Assignment Negotiation and Conflict Management
Preserving the Relationship
From the beginning of this course, you've learned how an integrative bargaining approach to a negotiation is preferable when the parties want to preserve a relationship. In our project scenario, Michelle wants to continue working at the call center, and more importantly wants to maintain the good working relationship that she has cultivated with her boss, Nikki. Neither party wants the schedule dispute to derail that relationship. Nikki knows that Michelle has started bad mouthing her to the other employees because she thinks that Nikki's approach to scheduling people based on seniority was a lazy rather than fair. Michelle's emotions were running high when she did this, but unfortunately the remarks started to damage Nikki's reputation as being a good supervisor. As a result, the relationship between the supervisor and employee is now strained.
For this final part of the project you will address the following questions in your paper:
Analyze and discuss the critical role of reputation, trust, and fairness as it pertains to this situation.
