A Compromise is an Art
“A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such
a way that everyone believes that he has
got the biggest piece.”
Ludwig Erhard, Chancellor of West Germany
As I see it. . . . . . . .
A compromise is an art
There is one consistent in our live . . . . . and
that one consistent is compromise.
We compromise at some level in our
personal lives . . . . and in business almost on a daily basis. In every successful
negotiation the art of compromise is unitized.
Compromise is not about winning and
losing . . . . It’s about finding a common ground for cooperation . . . . and
gaining agreement.
Compromise may be needed when you’re
planning to go out to dinner . . . . or planning a vacation. There is a
difference of option on where to have dinner . . . . or go on vacation. The parties
have a choice . . . . and can argue about where to go. In the long run everyone
ends up being unhappy. Or you can reach a compromise on the choice having
everyone feeling OK about the decision and creating a win – win compromise.
In every negotiation there are elements
that have to be successfully be gaped to reach a successful outcome in the
negotiation.
A successful negotiations requires
cooperation between the parties to find a common ground to successfully conclude
the negotiations. It’s also common to go through a series of compromises . . . . or
concessions by the parties before the negotiations are successfully completed.
Being able to find a common ground and
compromise is finding the common ground in successful negotiations.
A compromise is an art . . . . and is helping to guild the parties through
the negotiation process and at the conclusion of the negotiations everyone feels that
they came out the winner.
