Summary The business environment across the globe is characterised by three primary governance arrangements--bureaucracies, markets and networks. For organisations operating within each of these business contexts, the terms of engagement in regard to negotiation are different. Rather than starting from a broad 'how to' approach or a specific cultural interface, Negotiating at Work looks at governance arrangements within the business environment and at how governance arrangements impact on negotiations. It brings context to the fore of negotiating by using governance as the lens to consider the modern business context, and as such makes a theoretical contribution to our understanding of the field of negotiation
