Executive Diplomacy and the Art of Strategic Negotiations
0 - Used - good
Description
Typically, corporate executives are taught and encouraged to be assertive, bordering on aggressive, and so they often are. They do so without realizing that one can easily be assertive while failing to be effective. In the same manner, they celebrate the signing of a contract while ignoring that the objective is not the signing of the contract, but rather its effective implementation. Often their bonus blinds them from the value of a more diplomatic approach, a more lucrative one.
We invite the reader to step beyond yesterday and explore something new and innovative where empowered executive alignment opens the pathway to a more meaningful corporate culture and better results in high-value, strategic negotiations in the new reality. We suggest you start with the Preface of this book, or by visiting www.executivediplomacy.org. About the Author
