Gamification of negotiations and the concept of winning versus agreement

😎 In a broader sense, my take on this is: once an animal like the human being reaches a status of relative dominance over their closest universe (we no longer need to ‘compete’ with our peers for survival from predators or starvation) human civilization has replaced their competitive instinct for survival with other sorts of competitions where we are told there are winners and losers. The concept of winners and losers can be ideally exemplified in games, which civilization have developed to be more sophisticated as it evolves. In the initial sentence lies what, in my view, is a tendency to ‘gamify’ most activities in life, including those related to work, education, and even personal relationships. We ‘gamify’ things by attributing the concept of winning and losing as in competition even when there is rationally no such concept: who wins a negotiation? What does it mean to win or lose a negotiation if a negotiation is an agreement between two parties? If anyone, the one who figuratively ‘wins’ the negotiation is the one who ‘cares’ less, the one who doesn’t gamify but rationalize the negotiation and understands the concept of winning/losing is less relevant.

Notice this is a social media post that responds to the following quote: “Negotiations are won by whoever cares less”
Corrections made:
– Minor adjustments for clarity and consistency in tense and phrasing.
– Enclosed ‘compete’ and ‘gamify’ in single quotes to maintain consistency with your original styling for emphasis.
Note: Changes were made to enhance readability and ensure consistency in verb tense and style.
Review specifically the wording I use for referring to the quote and the last sentence where I say “outside of a game” which I believe can be improved with better language (remember altering tones or inferring intent is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN):

Corrections made:
– Clarified the reference to the quote for a smoother integration into the text.
– Improved the phrasing of the last sentence to more clearly express the idea that winning and losing concepts do not apply in non-competitive contexts, replacing “outside of a game” with a more precise expression.
Note: The changes were made to refine the reference to the quoted material and enhance the clarity of the concluding thought while strictly maintaining the original tone and intent.
🤖 “What does it mean to win or lose a negotiation if the purpose of a negotiation is for two parties to agree?”
Note: Your sentence is already clear and grammatically correct. It presents a rhetorical question that effectively emphasizes the collaborative rather than competitive nature of negotiations.
