All groups did a wonderful job giving their presentations this weekend. This course has provided me with a very good background and understanding in the collective bargaining process. I have definitely taken away from this course the importance of trust and building relationships with the union prior to negotiations. The relationships developed prior to negotiations are critical. When going through the negotiation process, it is essential to maintain these relationships and walk away with the union feeling as if they have won and with a positive feeling from the negotiation process. I just think the importance of relationships; trust and credibility are probably the biggest factors in negotiations.
I really enjoyed the simulation exercise!
