Negotiating

for a better world

Negotiation is an essential activity for companies and organisations. It is the means of coming to an agreement, in a situation where several participating parties disagree, so that everyone involved obtains what they feel is fair.

Negotiation is an instrument of regulation for economic exchanges between partners, suppliers and users. It is also a regulation tool for social exchanges, both in the framework of defining collective agreement and to determine individual cases. It is an ethical practice that encourages each of the participating parties, in conflict, to find an alliance which is beneficial for everyone.

 

● An ethical charter

As members of the Nego4Good charter for ethical and responsible negotiation, we consider a negotiation to be successful when each of the participating parties obtains what is fair for them. It is the ideas of justice, equity, coopetition and the creation of lasting relationships that guide our actions and those of our organisation’s collaborators.

● Fair methods

We have one ambition: making the world a more peaceful place by promoting negotiation as a method of creating shared values. We promote negotiation methods, with our internal partners (social negotiations, team management, conflict management) and or our external partners (clients, suppliers, economic and social actors) and help them each obtain what seems fair to them.

● Social Growth

We believe that by applying the principals of ethical and responsible negotiation, supported by the Nego4Good charter, we can promote lasting economic and social growth for the benefit of all participating parties, in both the business world and the global environment.

Charter

for Ethical and
Responsible Negotiation

Even when the situation, or the ratio of power is in our favour, we work in a cooperative manner so that every participant comes out with a fitting and satisfactory result from the situation.

We always reject behaviour, whether it is from our collaborators, or our negotiation partners, that could be assimilated with negative manipulation or the use of force.

We always insure, both external and internal participating parties that our negotiation methods will be positive and create added value.

Behaviour from our collaborators that does not correspond with the ethical and responsible approach to negotiation we are promoting will be reported and called to question.

We will put mediation methods in place to resolve tense situations, whether they stem from collaborators, internal partners, or if they come from external participating parties.

economic performance

in the prism of ethical negotiation

 

Negotiation considered as an intersecting element of economic activity needs to respond to a social objective: resolving situations where there is disagreement, regardless of the cause, with a constructive, respectful and positive approach.


Businesses, within the framework of their societal mission, can now examine their managerial, social, commercial practices and their business model through their approach to ethical and responsible negotiation.
