Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to holding your ground with hardball negotiators, from a “talented advisor with a rare ability for connecting people with ideas” (Patrick Lencioni, bestselling author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team). Negotiation is the middle ground between capitulation and stonewalling—a back-and-forth between two parties trying to reach agreement. If a price or other term is non-negotiable, there is no give and take, just “take it or leave it.” You may think you are negotiating, but if the other side isn’t playing, you aren’t either. Regardless of the industry, situation, or product, the two most common mistakes negotiators make are: 1) they give ground too easily, and 2) they get nothing in return. When dealing with tough customers, it is even more important to be able to defend your position and bargain for reciprocal concessions. Negotiating with Tough Customers provides proven methods for holding your ground against (seemingly) more powerful negotiators. But it goes further, making sure that when you do give ground, you get equal or better value in return. Using a cooperative, collaborative approach in a hardball negotiation just doesn’t work. Tough negotiators will play win-win, but only if they have nothing to lose. Negotiating With Tough Customers will make you a better salesperson by making you a better negotiator . . . and vice versa.

Download or read book Dealing with an Angry Public written by Lawrence Susskind and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1996-04-17 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some portion of the American public will react negatively to almost any new corporate initiative, as Disney discovered when it announced its plans to build an historical theme park in Virginia. Similarly, government efforts to change policy or shift budget priorities are invariably met with stiff resistance. In this enormously practical book, Lawrence Susskind and Patrick Field analyze scores of both private and public-sector cases, as well as crisis scenarios such as the Alaskan oil spill, the silicone breast implant controversy, and nuclear plant malfunction at Three Mile Island. They show how resistance to both public and private initiatives can be overcome by a mutual gains approach involving face-to-face negotiation, a strategy applied successfully by over fifteen hundred executives and officials who have attended Professor Susskind's MIT-Harvard "Angry Public" seminars.Susskind and Field outline the six key elements of this approach in order to help business and government leaders negotiate, rather than fight, with their critics. In the process, they show how to identify who the public is, whose concerns to address first, which people and organizations must be convinced of the legitimacy of action taken, and how to assess and respond to different types of anger effectively. Acknowledging the crucial role played by the media in shaping public perception and understanding, Susskind and Field suggest a way to develop media interaction which is consistent with the six mutual gains principles, and also discuss the type of leadership that corporate and government managers must provide in order to combine these ideas into a useful whole.We all need to be concerned about a society in which the public's concerns, fears and anger are not adequately addressed. When corporate and government agencies must spend crucial time and resources on rehashing and defending each decision they make, a frustrated and angry public contributes to the erosion of confidence in our basic institutions and undermines our competitiveness in the international marketplace. In this valuable book, Susskind and Field have produced a strong, clear framework which will help reduce these hidden costs for hundreds of executives, managers, elected and appointed officials, entrepreneurs, and the public relations, legal and other professionals who advise them.

Download or read book No fault Divorce written by Allen M. Parkman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1970, all the states adopted no-fault divorce statutes, which have had the unexpected effect of producing dire financial conditions for many divorced women and their children. In this important study, economist and lawyer Allen Parkman shows how no-fault divorce has systematically operated against the interests of these women and children. With rare economic and legal insight, Parkman argues that by changing the grounds for divorce without changing the laws that define and allocate property at divorce, the legal system created substantial injustices. The key mistake, he suggests, was in accepting a definition of property that did not include the income-earning capacity--human capital--of the individuals involved. Using human capital theory, Parkman criticizes current divorce law and presents a framework for reform that would reduce the injustices introduced by no-fault divorce. He concludes that a thorough reform, however, may require the changing of the grounds for divorce to mutual consent. This book is essential reading for scholars, professionals, and, indeed, for anyone interested in the health and future of the family and the well-being of women in contemporary U.S. society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We've written this book to help you negotiate the best possible severance deal. Maybe this just happened to you. Maybe you are worried that it might happen to you. You are called into your supervisor's office, a human resources person is sitting there, and your boss starts by saying, "This is not going to be a pleasant conversation." Within ten minutes, you discover that you have been laid off. You might also find out that that your email account has already been locked, that you must immediately remove all personal items from your office, and that you will hand in your company ID badge today as you walk out of the building for the last time (perhaps escorted by a security officer.) But before you leave, your boss adds, "I'm so sorry we have to do this, as I really care about you personally. Luckily, I've been able to get you a decent severance deal. All you need to do is sign this release letter." Not wanting to jeopardize the "gift" they are offering you, you lean over the desk to sign the letter. STOP! Don't sign anything! Never agree to anything in that meeting. The dance has just begun.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary of Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss and Tahl Raz Includes Analysis Preview: Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss and Tahl Raz is a guide to using hostage negotiation techniques in business and personal negotiations. Modern negotiation strategies taught in business school usually center on classic texts that describe negotiation without factoring in emotions or irrational behavior. In reality, all negotiations involve emotional factors and illogical reactions. And in hostage scenarios, "splitting the difference" by accepting the release of half the hostages in exchange of partial fulfillment of demands is never a desired outcome. Hostage takers who feel heard are more likely to trust negotiators to be honest about what they want. Active listening involves mirroring the other person's speech, speaking in a way that sounds assertive but calming, and not saying anything at all for several seconds between utterances. This slows the conversation down and conveys the impression that the negotiator wishes to understand... PLEASE NOTE: This is key takeaways and analysis of the book and NOT the original book.
