Bargaining Strategies

Subjects to be addressed include: bargaining theory, changes and variations in bargaining structure and practice, analyzing and changing the bargaining climate; doing power analysis; examining the role of the membership in bargaining; interest based win-win strategic coordinated campaigns; use of strikes and avoiding /reacting to lockouts; bargaining in a global economy; creating community labor coalitions; concession bargaining; job security; settlement; and defining victory.
