Harvard Law and Business Professor supports the Collaborative Approach
"I am wholly supportive of Collaborative Practice ...it is textbook interest-based negotiation, a great illustration of what we try to teach our students here at Harvard.
"Too often people think of collaborative approaches as being soft and
concession-oriented, but in fact the research (experimental, theoretical,
case study) shows that collaborative approaches are better at "getting the
most marbles" than the traditional adversarial approaches."
Guhan Subramanian
