Barriers to Negotiation

Negotiating is not easy. In addition, there are a number of factors that directly influence the negotiation, preventing it from being successful. The main barriers are:

• Lack of practice: In this case, initial preparation and, above all, listening play an important role. When not used to negotiating, important aspects that will decide the course of the negotiation are often neglected.
• Lack of analysis of all possible alternatives.
• Fast concessions: It is better to listen and take time to assess.
• Lack of strategy, and the other party taking advantage.
• Missing definition of the field of negotiation: It must be determined what you want to achieve and where you are willing to concede.

Unit 1: The Gaps Model of Service Quality

Service quality is critical for customer satisfaction, loyalty, and retention. Unlike physical products, services are intangible, heterogeneous, and perishable. The Gaps Model of Service Quality, developed by Parasuraman, Zeithaml, and Berry (1985), identifies discrepancies between customer expectations and perceptions to help organizations manage quality effectively.

The Five Service Quality Gaps

• Gap 1 (Knowledge Gap): Difference between customer expectations and management’s perception of those expectations.
• Gap 2 (Policy/Design Gap): Difference between management’s perception and actual service specifications.
• Gap 3 (Delivery Gap): Difference between service specifications and actual service delivery.

Understanding Organizational Hierarchy

Hierarchy arises when managers struggle to coordinate and motivate their subordinates. Based on levels of hierarchy, the organization can be divided into:

• Vertical Organization: The hierarchy has many levels relative to the total size.
• Horizontal Organization: The hierarchy has few levels relative to the total size.

Relationship Between Size and Height of Vertical Hierarchy

Once a certain limit is exceeded, the growth of the hierarchy becomes less than proportional to the growth of the organization’s size. Due to this relationship, the chosen hierarchical structure is typically pyramidal, with a decreasing number of managers at each successive level. Choosing the right number of managers and hierarchical...
