Explanation:

Please refer to subunit 4.1. In Part 2 of Negotiation Experts' "Multi-Party Negotiations," the author describes Ancona and Caldwell's description of four possible major roles that can be incorporated into a multi-party negotiation: Scouts, Ambassadors, Coordinators, and Guards. Scouts, for example, are the "go-betweens who fetch relevant material, such as statistics and reports, as required by their respective members of the negotiating team."
