This week's topic focuses on Managing Commercial vs Political Interests in Projects, a crucial aspect of project procurement. The assignment requires students to analyze the different taxonomies of commercial and political interests, compare and contrast these concepts, and explore various perspectives that influence negotiation strategies. By examining case studies and applying theoretical frameworks from experts like Rojot, Steele, and Beasor, Owens, and Matz, students will develop a well-structured thought process around commercial project negotiation.
