1. First, and due by the date shown in the assignment title, take the position of the Mining Company and list the elements of your strategy or conclusions related to (1) Water Quality, (2) Air Quality and (3) Taxation of Company Land.
Use the model for Integrative Negotiation to prepare your negotiation agenda brief or document (Lewicki et al., 77–95). Use the Template provided in Modules.
Currently, a majority of registered voters that comprise the city believe that the mine should be closed, completely, however City leadership knows this is not a possibility given existing agreements and laws that cannot be overturned in the short run.
A recent market study provided accurate and verifiable results. If there could be socially responsible endeavor or activity undertaken and publicized by the management of Twin Lakes Mining, the perception of the City’s constituents could become favorable for the company and its overall operations.
Using the discussion board, make an initial post that lists two (2) of your elements or conclusions, and provide detailed reasons and evidence for each element or conclusion.
Responses should comprise 400 to 600 words. Always write with accuracy, reliability and without error, and employ a professional, persuasive, legal style like espoused by the textbook authors.
Remember to prepare your agenda using the TEMPLATE and then copy and paste the entire text into the Discussion, do not attach documents. Thank you.
2. For this written assignment you may consult others, but the written narrative is to be your own work and not written by others or any sort of technological or machine generated text, narrative, or sources. You may use the writing center and other resources provided by the university, college, or department for completion of this assignment. Use the TEMPLATE and procedures used for Case 1, Island Cruise, to also complete Case 2 and Case 3.
Complete a case preparation brief or negotiation agenda that describes your desired elements or conclusions in an agreement as if you are the City’s representative and remember that you and your family reside in the city that you represent. Use Conclusions, Reasons, Evidence as the subheadings for your analysis.
Be careful not to base your conclusions on opinion and instead employ generally accepted facts that all parties may agree to.
Ensure you address or specify each element fully or completely and provide adequate reasons and sufficient evidence for your conclusion or desired element to result from the negotiation. Water quality, air quality and taxation are the three items that comprise your negotiation.
Read and follow the steps for maintaining academic integrity on the Academic Integrity page.
