Negotiations Lesson No. 1?

I remember Prof. Dishan Kamdar repeating over and over again.

Get a BATNA / NBA.

(BATNA = Best Alternative To A Negotiated Alternative, NBA = Next Best Alternative).

I love corporate drama. Reading this WSJ article on the Microsoft - Nokia - Google mating dance, I was fascinated about how every lesson we were taught in our Negotiation Analysis course / workshop at ISB can be followed in this drama.

Awesome!

Hi,

This is Reshma Iqbal from The New Indian Express Newspaper, Chennai.

I'm doing a feature review on Internet Explorer 9. If you could download the beta version, I would like to know your opinion of Internet Explorer 9: the pros and cons and suggestions for improvement, if any. I will also require a high-resolution profile photo of you.

Do revert at the earliest, if we can take this forward.

Best,
