Interest-Based Negotiation (IBN)
A rational approach to problem-solving. The IBN process represents a shift from the traditional, adversarial approach to dealing with issues and helps management and labour reduce conflict that occurs during negotiations and during the life of the collective agreement. Instead of presenting positions, the parties jointly decide which issues need to be addressed and then discuss their interests on each issue.
