During a project agreement negotiation, you realize that the other party's priorities directly conflict with your project's objectives. They are unwilling to compromise, and the discussion has reached an impasse. What is the best approach to resolve this situation and move the negotiation forward?
Refuse to make any concessions and maintain your position, as your project's objectives are non-negotiable.
Request a break in the negotiation to reassess your position and consult with your team.
Escalate the situation to higher authorities within both organizations to resolve the impasse.
Propose a mutually beneficial trade-off by making concessions on lower-priority items in exchange for the other party's compromise on their conflicting priorities.
