- Committee Report: Negotiations…!! we negotiate all day, every day, from the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep. Contract terms and conditions. Hiring, managing performance, and firing. Defining deadlines, scope, and deliverables. Collecting fees. Seeking alignment about business strategy. Enlisting stakeholders. Creating partnerships and joint ventures. Dissolving them. We make offers, counteroffers, and agreements to settle. we say yes. we say no. we stall for time. Real life is happening all around us while we’re facing many situations….
