==Creative Alternatives==

Perhaps the most famous negotiation [[parable]] involves an [[argument]] over an orange. The most obvious approach was to simply cut it in half, each [[person]] getting a [[fair]] [[share]]. But, when the negotiators began talking to each other, exchanging [[information]] about their interests, a better solution to the [[problem]] became obvious. The [[person]] wanting the orange for juice for breakfast took that part and the person wanting the rind for making marmalade took that part. Both sides ended up with more. Neither [[agreement]] is particularly [[creative]]. The parable of the orange becomes a [[story]] about [[creativity]] when both parties decide to [[cooperate]] in planting an orange tree or even an orchard. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negotiation]
