Product description
Good negotiators are made, not born, and good negotiators can become even better. In his most recent text, Negotiation: Principles, Tips, and Tactics for Successful Deal-Making, author Robert C. Worthington provides the means for readers to refine their negotiation skills. In the first chapter, Worthington explains that he "wrote this book for all of those people – professionals and laypersons – who think they can't negotiate, who are afraid to negotiate, or who have to negotiate but don't know how."
This practical, easy-to-follow guide offers valuable insight into the practice and law of negotiating contracts, and provides an overview of relevant legal principles and cases, as well as tactics, tips, and strategies, and many illustrative examples.
