Answer 1

One way to alleviate confusion in a negotiation is to -

C) direct negotiation participants to leave name badges with titles in the car to have flatter hierachy of conversation

Negotiation process involves multiple participants some of whom are the actual negotiators and the other are mere attendees to the process. Hence, it is important to segregate the active participants from the other attendees to alleviate confusion in a negotiation. Thus, direct negotiation participants need to leave name badges with titles to make it confusion-free and have a flatter hierarchy of conversation.
