Getting to Yes: Negotiating Agreement without Giving in - Couverture rigide

Negotiating is a way of life for the majority of us. Whether we're at work, at home or simply going out, we want to participate in the decisions that affect us. Nowadays, hardly anyone gets through the day without a single negotiation, yet, few of us are armed with the effective, powerful negotiating skills that prevent stubborn haggling and ensure mutual problem-solving.

Contents include:

- Don't bargain over positions

-Separate people from the problem

- Insist on objective criteria

-What if they won't play?
