T.Walker and Beverly M. Lloyd Walker;Cheung S.O., & and Chow P.T. 2011. Withdrawal in Construction Project Dispute Negotiation. Journal of Construction Engineering and Management. Volume 137, Issue 12There are different problems generated at the workplace suchas disputes between two parties and the claims that they demand, the differentvariation of conflict and the arbitration needed to mitigate such conflict.1.What is the Consequence of Disputes, Claims, Variations, and Arbitration?Disputes gives rise to abruption of work culture. This leads to various claims by the parties indulged in the disputes. The consequence of suchclaims often leads to variation of opinion among the involved the parties. However, such variations are harmful for the workplace and thus arbitration is used that leads to mitigation of the conflict.2.How can we Avoid Disputes, Claims, Variations, and Arbitration?Disputes can be avoided by maintaining a calm composure while havingdiscussions. This can easily be achieved by having people with sound judgement participate in the discussions. Lack of dispute leads to elimination in the number of claims. Therefore, there would not be any variations and the need for arbitration is thus completely avoided.3.What happens if we don’t Avoid Disputes, Claims, Variations, and Arbitration?Conflict of interest and ethics give rise to disputes. Disputes can hence disrupt the work flow. Continuous disputes can permanently damage the damage the work culture of an organization. Additional effort is thus wasted on claims, variations and arbitration. Therefore, if we do not avoid them, they would be responsible for decrementing the quality of work and productivity.4.Does the World View of the Researchers Matter?The world view as seen by the researchers is important, as they take into account a wide variety of data and scenarios and then analyse the data to provide us with the most structures knowledge of dispute Goldberg, S.

The researchers have utilized various scenarios pertaining to negotiation and hence such accurate analysis can only be performed through accurate validation.6.Are the sources adequate for the researchers?The sources have proved to be adequate for the researchers. However, some more real-life scenarios would have proved to be helpful in scenarios such as these where the problem, that is, negotiation and dispute settlement Is very common the corporate and business world.7.Are they adequate for us and our topic of Commercial Negotiation?The sources are not adequate for us and for the study of Commercial Negotiation. This is because more real-life successful scenarios about successful negotiation would have provided us with more insight in how to successfully negotiate. The source of data is only based on the construction industry in Hong Kong. Negotiators in various other countries and different sectors might use different techniques for negotiation. 8.Are the assumptions in Cheung & Chow’s research and hypotheses reasonable?The assumptions states that the negotiator must have knowledge of the matter over which the dispute has taken place and the person mustalso be stable emotionally. These qualities is desirable in a negotiator, however assuming that such qualities are present in a negotiator is fairly unreasonable. 9.Are the results of the true and false Hypotheses believable in your Merrills, J. G. (2017). Internationaldispute settlement. Cambridge universitypress.Ware, S. (2016). Principles of alternative dispute resolution. West Academic.2 of 5
