crap! That’s a great idea. Wow. What can I say that will sound smart and clever? I really hope they think I’m intelligent. I could touch on symbolism or make a reference to post-modernism. Wait – what did they just ask me?” Stay focused on the other person’s words and points. People rarely mind when you say, “Hmm. Let me think about that for a second.” Quite the opposite, since it shows that you’re taking the conversation seriously. If you compose your answers while someone else is speaking

negotiation tactic against our opponent. The game we played during class was whether or not we should close or open our store on Sunday. At the same time, if we closed and other team is open we will lose $ 40,000. But if both teams will open their store we will both lose $ 20,000. Then, we decided to open on Sunday.

level of communication and intimacy where you feel completely safe to reveal your unique needs with each other. Truly, unless needs are known and met, a couple will remain "strangers." | Many lacking the skills to make it through the "wall of conflict" revert back to the first two levels of communication and never truly get to know each other and satisfy needs.

number of staff. There is a need for formal rules which usually come in printed format e.g. a manual, policy or procedure. The information once compiled should be available to all staff.
