Více o knize

Some negotiations are straightforward, while others can feel impossible, especially when conflict escalates and aggression rises. In these challenging situations, where power and resources are limited, Deepak Malhotra, a Harvard professor and negotiation expert, offers strategies to defuse tension and achieve success. He outlines three key approaches to breaking deadlocks and resolving conflicts, supported by compelling real-life negotiation stories, such as the drafting of the US Constitution, the resolution of the Cuban Missile Crisis, and disputes in professional sports leagues. Malhotra emphasizes that these principles are applicable not just in high-stakes scenarios but also in everyday situations, from corporate agreements and job negotiations to personal relationships and parenting. Ultimately, he reminds us that negotiation is about human interaction, regardless of the context. The goal is to engage with others in a manner that fosters understanding and leads to mutually beneficial agreements. The strategies presented will equip you to navigate negotiations more effectively, regardless of the challenges you face.
