When you wanna make a agreement with partners, what can you do ? Here's some suggestions for you.

1. Listen Actively

Show them you understand :

• that they feel strongly
• What they feel strongly about
• Why they feel strongly about it  (pause to let them response)

2. Win yourself a hearing

• Explain your own feelings (facts by facts)
• Refer back to their points
• Make your points firmly, but stay friendly

3. Work to a joint solution

• Seek their ideas
• Build on their ideas
• Offer you ideas (don't push them)
• Construct the solution from everyone's needs
