The Negotiation Toolkit $15.48 The word "negotiation" is rooted in the Latin negotium, meaning "not leisure"(as in, that which is not leisure is business).

The Negotiation Toolkit offers a fresh new approach to mastering these two crucial skills. Unlike other books (which just offer basic advice), this hands-on workbook integrates questions and answers, self-assessments, mini-surveys, feedback measures, and action challenges to help readers build personal confidence and negotiating prowess. Readers will learn: * the "golden rule" of negotiation * three fundamental questions of negotiation * when not to negotiate * eight behaviors of star negotiators, and much more.

The Language of Negotiation $172.48 Successful negotiators do not take language for granted. Spoken and written language is the instrument of negotiation. Understanding and using its power is central to managing and influencing the process of exchanging information and discussing ideas in order to reach agreement and achieve goals.

The Art and Science of Negotiation $6.98 Whether you are selling a house, closing a business deal, settling a divorce, arbitrating a labor dispute, or trying to hammer out no international treaty, Howard Raiffa’s new book will measurably improve your negotiating skills. Although it is a sophisticated self-help book–directed to the lawyer, labor arbitrator, business executive, college dean, diplomat–it is not cynical or Machiavellian: Raiffa emphasizes problems and situations where, with the kinds of skills he aims to develop, disputants can achieve results that are beneficial to all parties concerned. Indeed, he argues that the popular "zero-sum" way of thinking, according to which one side must lose if the other wins, often makes both sides worse off than they would be when bargaining for joint mutual gains. Using a vast array of specific cases and clear, helpful diagrams, Raiffa not only elucidates the step-by-step processes of negotiation but also translates this deeper understanding into practical guidelines for negotiators and "intervenors." He examines the mechanics of negotiation in imaginative fashion, drawing on his extensive background in game theory and decision analysis, on his quarter-century of teaching nonspecialists in schools of business and public policy, on his personal experiences as director of an international institute dealing with East/West problems, and on the results of simulated negotiation exercises with hundreds of participants. There are popular books on the art of winning and scholarly books on the science of negotiation, but this is the first book to bridge the two currents. Shrewd, accessible, and engagingly written, it shows how a little analysis sprinkled with a touch of art can work to the advantage of any negotiator.

The New Rules of International Negotiation $14.48 Because of the fast-changing global marketplace and growing demand for cultural solutions, successfully negotiating across borders has become a key for building business and increase revenues for most major companies. Most other countries embrace negotiating as part of their everyday activity; outside the U.S., virtually everything is negotiable. But many U.S. business professionals lack the skills to manage an interaction, identify the other party’s needs and reach an agreement that is mutually beneficial. Trying to do all that in a foreign country just makes it more difficult! The aggressive, competitive, "shoot-from-the-hip" style of many U.S. corporations is simply not appropriate to many other cultures. The New Rules of International Negotiation addresses the commonalities, the differences and the barriers facing anyone trying to do business and negotiate with other countries. It includes detailed analyses for doing business in China, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Russia, India, Europe, the Eastern Bloc countries and South America.
