Negotiation as a procurement person, is a matter of talent or just driven by "manuals" ?

As I had a chat in a post about negotiations, I argued with someone who claimed that negotiation, is a summary of directions and definitions learned. I supported the view that theory always helps and gives first steps into a field, but as concern negotiations and procurement, theory is far behind practice. In this fields the personality, the experience and the talent are major advantage to success. I 'd love to hear your side of view.

Negotiation is an Art. As one CANNOT learn painting or poetry etc etc from books, Negotiation cannot be learnt and practised through manuals, However, as is the case with every discipline, manuals and rules refine the final product.

Negotiation is definitely about talent. That is using the knowledge you have to get to the best possible position. I truly believe 90% of good negotiation is in the preparation. The final 10% is using the research to come to a position you are happy with.

its a talent process, time taking and just don't accept other parties opinion even though you can accept their point... they should feel like they negotiated well.
