Maps what each stakeholder actually cares about underneath their stated position — because addressing the stated position while missing the real stake accomplishes nothing. TRIGGERS: 'what do they actually want', 'underlying stakes', 'what's really at stake', 'beneath the position', 'why won't they agree'.
