Does negotiation touch rationality, sensibility and...cuisine?
A multicultural approach, individual sensoriality and negotiation can be found in “negotiation at the informal tables.”
“Nourishing negotiation” in fact moves from the idea that negotiation, an essential skill in today's society, is “at the heart of human interaction” (Stuart Diamond) and food is instrumental in improving relationships and communicative exchange.The professional negotiator, like a good kitchen chef, is able to make sense of contrasts and harness them to enhance each individual ingredient, intelligently bringing different personalities, cultures and contexts into dialogue so as to reach productive long-term agreements, turning conflicts into opportunities for personal and professional growth.
