The Impasse Breaker

Help me break through this deadlock.

The negotiation: [DESCRIBE]
Where we're stuck: [THE SPECIFIC STICKING POINT]
What's been tried: [DESCRIBE]

Provide:
1. Why we're really stuck (positions, ego, genuine conflict, missing
   information, or process)
2. Ways to reframe the issue that's blocking us
3. Process moves to unstick it (take a break, change who's in the room,
   bring in a neutral, revisit later issues first)
4. Face-saving ways for both sides to move
5. Whether the impasse means there's genuinely no deal

Sometimes the block is the issue; sometimes it's the process or the
people. Help me diagnose which and move it.
