Product Description

Product Description

Roger Dawson's Secrets of Power Negotiating has changed the way American business thinks about negotiating. Thinking "win-win"--looking for that magical third solution in which everyone wins but nobody loses--can be a naive and ultimately unsuccessful approach in today's tough business environment. Power Negotiating teaches that the way you negotiate can get you everything you want and still convince the other side that they won also.

This third edition has been completely revised and updated to reflect the changing dynamics of business today. New and expanded sections include:

  • Twenty sure-fire negotiating gambits.

  • How to negotiate over the telephone, by e-mail, and via instant messaging.

  • How to read body language.

  • Listening to hidden meanings in conversation.

  • Dealing with people from other cultures.

  • How to become an expert mediator.

    Secrets of Power Negotiating covers every aspect of the negotiating process with practical, proven advice, from beginning steps to critical final moves: how to recognize unethical tactics, key principles of the Power Negotiating strategy, why money is not as important as everyone thinks, negotiating pressure points, understanding the other party and gaining the upper hand, and analyses of different negotiating styles.

    As you read Roger Dawson's now-classic book, you'll find yourself nodding your head saying, "Those guys used that gambit against me last week." And then you will say, "Never again!" This book is a rarity: A "Secrets of" book that actually provides you with useful tactics that you can employ in daily life and business. In fact, the knowledge you gain from this book will come in just as handy in everyday situations, like buying a car or setting your kid's allowance, as it will when your business' survival is at stake. While the secrets themselves can be reduced to common-sense approaches, many are intuitively brilliant, like the advice to psychically flinch when you hear the other side's first offer. We at getAbstract.com recommend Dawson's insider insights to all readers, because everyone can benefit by negotiating a better deal.

    Roger Dawson IS "The Master". This book is absolutely BRILLIANT! (And I really mean it.) In the book you'll learn virtually all of the strategies, tactics and skills required for successful "Powerful" negotiating in any given situation - and you'll gather a load more info about other thigs as well; such as acquiring a winning personality, reading other people and building confidence. Apart from the book being jam-packed with info and tips, it's well written and laid-out, and dead easy to read. It's so presented that you retain the contents without difficulty. All the knowledge is first-hand and has been tried and tested on the battlefield by Mr Dawson himself. (In the wrong hands this book could be dangerous!) You might think at first that some of the material is what you already know - and some of it you probably do - but stay with it and you'll realise that even if you are aware of some, you've probably not been applying it properly. But there is much in the book that you won't know and it'll save you an awful lot of time, provide shortcuts and help save some disappointments. This book has helped me tremendously (and so has Mr dawson's other books). Mr Dawson is a true professional and it's really worthwhile checking out his other publications as well. Look, I could go on forever praising this book but there just isn't the time nor the space here to do so (there's not even enough stars either here to give it an even higher rating that it deserves). Get the book, study it, try out and practise the material. If you do it diligently there's no reason why you cannot succeed. You won't need another book on negotiating - this is the only one you'll ever need. Go Get It Today!!!

    What you should be asking for is your MPP-your maximum plausible position. This is the most you can ask for and still have the other side see some plausibility in your position. &quote;

    You're much better off agreeing with the other person initially and then turning around using the Feel, Felt, Found formula. &quote;

    Instead of arguing up front, which creates confrontational negotiation, get in the habit of agreeing and then turning it around. &quote;
