Negotiation Target
[ni-goh-shee-ey-shuh n] [tahr-git]
The desired negotiation outcome or goal decided at the start of the negotiation. This is best set across each and every aspect of a negotiation (e.g. price, term, volume etc). Some organisations set an ambitious negotiation aspiration or opening offer, and a less ambitious negotiation target, while for others these are one in the same. The level of negotiation aspiration is heavily influenced by a country’s culture, with the Germans setting lower aspirations and the Chinese higher.
