Written in the fifth century BCE, by Sun Tzu and Wu Tzu, it remains one of the most celebrated works on war in the literature of China.

Negotiation occurs in all aspects of our lives and has been an integral part of human relationships since ancient times. Improving our ability to negotiate is a skill that is relevant to everyone and can be applied to personal relationships, work issues, and even day-to-day communication as well as the more obvious arenas for negotiation such as business.

During a negotiation a lot of promises and agreements are made by both sides of the table. This is all well and good, but the ultimate goal of any negotiation is for both sides to agree on a deal that they can live with. As a negotiator, it's going to be your job to take a look at where things stand in the negotiation and then package up the agreements so that they can be included in the final deal.

It is not too often one can read or listen to a 2,600-year-old book and know that it still has relevance and importance today.
