Learn to be a better negotiator--and achieve the outcomes you want.

This book will inspire you to:

  • Control the negotiation before you enter the room
  • Persuade others to do what you want--for their own reasons
  • Manage emotions on both sides of the table
  • Understand the rules of negotiating across cultures
  • Set the stage for a healthy relationship long after the ink has dried
  • Identify what you can live with and when to walk away
