About this listen

Getting to Yes is a straightorward, universally applicable method for negotiating personal and professional disputes without getting taken - and without getting angry.

It offers a concise, step-by-step, proven strategy for coming to mutually acceptable agreements in every sort of conflict - whether it involves parents and children, neighbors, bosses and employees, customers or corporations, tenants or diplomats. Based on the work of the Harvard Negotiation Project, a group that deals continually with all levels of negotiation and conflict resolution, from domestic to business to international, Getting to Yes tells you how to:

  • Separate the people from the problem
  • Focus on interests, not positions
  • Work together to create opinions that will satisfy both parties
  • Negotiate successfully with people who are more powerful, refuse to play by the rules, or resort to "dirty tricks"

I just finished "Never Split the Difference" and wanted to revisit "Getting to Yes" to compare and contrast the two books.

Bottom line, you need to read both books and apply the knowledge to the situation you are facing. The former is relevant
when negotiating with someone who doesn't share your value system. The latter is relevant when negotiating with someone who shares your principles and fundamentals.

Both books are essential business reading.

While it was a little over my head, I really enjoyed the concept and presentation. The book is set up really clearly for audio consumption, and I've already used plenty of the strategies presented in my day-to-day life.

This was an easy-to-listen-to and relatively short useful tool for negotiations. You can tell why this is the industry standard for negotiation for lawyers. Even outside of its professional uses, this book can help guide you through inter-personal conflicts from struggling with your landlord, to arguing with your spouse. #Audible1

Excellent resource for negotiation strategy
