Assume that the City Department of Education (CDE) has hired you as a consultant to identify
and manage the opportunities and risks associated with a potential strike authorized by the
United Federation of Teachers (UFT).
For this case study, please address the following topics:
•Develop a plan to persuade both parties to negotiate the best possible outcome for the
coming school year.
•How will the negotiation process likely affect perceptions of both the UFT and the CDE?
•Develop a negotiation plan to retain top teachers now working in the New York City
school district. A vital concern of the CDE is that the best teachers will leave the state.
•How can the UFT and CDE increase negotiating power in 2020?
