Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Successful hostage negotiators use all of these techniques to establish trust and maintain communication with the hostage takers. Isolating them from outside sources of communication reduces the chance of interference or escalation from outside parties. Being non-threatening helps to build a rapport with the hostage taker and maintain their trust. Increased and sustained conversations help to de-escalate the situation and work towards a peaceful resolution.
