Abstract: | This article examines the effects of negotiation (here as: neg-n.) practices, such as coercion and contract formality, on how suppliers and customers perceived the resulting business relationship. A purchasing neg-n. simulation with students in a classroom setting is conducted. The results demonstrated that the use of coercive techniques by negotiators during neg-n. had a negative effect on satisfaction. In addition, the findings showed among others that, as expected, negotiators entering a neg-n. with a cooperative orientation would tend to avoid the use of coercive practices during neg-n. |
