Quickest outcome? Nah, that's what happens when you just arm-wrestle your way through a negotiation.

The other party conceding on all items? That's not negotiation, that's just a hostage situation!

I'm a little confused on this. Is Principled Negotiation really about achieving the quickest outcome? That doesn't seem right. I think it has more to do with finding a mutually satisfactory solution, but I'm not 100% sure.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. Principled Negotiation focuses on separating the people from the problem and looking for creative solutions that address both parties' interests. So the goal must be a win-win outcome, not just one side winning.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know Principled Negotiation is supposed to be a collaborative approach, but I can't remember if the goal is specifically a win-win outcome. I'll have to think this through carefully.
