How To Negotiate
There are many times in our professional and personal lives where we need to find a way forward when two or more parties disagree.
There are three possible outcomes - which thanks to the brilliant methodology by Stephen Covey we are all pretty much aware of nowadays. But! They deserve regular re-examination and checking because, in my experience, it can be rare to find leaders actually behaving for the best, win-win solution:
