Answer preview

Integrative negotiation is a strategy where two or more negotiating parties join hands to come up with a consensus solution based on their interests. Susskind & Ali (2014) highlight that this type of negotiation is also regarded as a win-win solution.   In this strategy, disputants aim to come up with a mutually beneficial solution that will favor them.  Integrative negotiation considers both parties’ concerns, desires, needs, and fears.   Therefore, it ensures that the solution does not leave each party worse off. One strength of integrative bargaining is that it produces a more satisfactory outcome that fits both disputing parties. It fosters building a positive relationship between the two parties.   Despite integrative negotiation being one of the most effective bargaining strategies, it has its own weaknesses. First, it involves sharing information which allows members to come up with a win to win solution. However, some members may feel it as a plan to get sensitive information about themselves.   Secondly, some negotiators may use this strategy to exploit others.
