Template Blueprint & Architecture
Every branch in this blueprint is expandable into its own sub-canvas, connected through bi-directional [[wiki-links]].
Negotiation Prep: [Scenario]
●Primary Goals
Your ideal outcome and the acceptable compromises between it and your [[BATNA]].
●BATNA
Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement — your walk-away point and the source of your leverage.
●Concession Strategy
What you are willing to trade, in what order, to reach a deal better than your [[BATNA]].
●Counterparty Analysis
Map their goals, pressures, and likely [[BATNA]] so you can craft offers that meet their interests too.
