C

Explanation:

People who are highly interested in having positive relationships with other people are poor negotiators.

Being too interested in having a positive relationship with people makes someone a poor negotiator because one may end up failing to make their needs known. And even if they do, they are likely to cave in too quickly. A strong negotiator should be able to connect with people, and be able to easily manage interactions. He should have a pleasant manner and appearance but strong willed.
