The document discusses key temperaments in negotiation - harmonizer, controller, pragmatist, and action seeker - which are based on Jungian preferences of sensing/intuiting and judging/perceiving. Each temperament has a profile describing their general approach and what happens when they get "out of control". The document also discusses how other personality factors can affect one's temperament and increase the risk of certain negative behaviors during negotiation.
