A realistic target refers to the most likely outcome of a negotiation; it is neither the most demanding nor the least demanding but one somewhere in between. Accordingly, as part of negotiation planning, negotiators are encouraged to define a range of targets, including the most realistic outcome, and use that as part of their objective setting. See also Planning, Negotiation and Target, Ideal.
