Trust-based Negotiation

Trust-based negotiation is a method where both parties focus on building and maintaining mutual trust during the negotiation process. Instead of solely competing over terms, they aim to create a cooperative environment where open communication and reliability are prioritized. This approach encourages honesty, transparency, and understanding, which helps both sides work toward mutually beneficial agreements. Trust reduces uncertainty, shortens negotiation time, and often leads to stronger, more sustainable relationships and solutions that satisfy both parties’ interests.
