About this listen
WINNER OF THE BOOK PRIZE OF THE CENTER FOR PUBLIC RESOURCES
We all want to get to yes, but what happens when the other person keeps saying no? How can you negotiate successfully with a stubborn boss, an irate customer, or a deceitful coworker?
In Getting Past No, William Ury of Harvard Law School’s Program on Negotiation and author of Possible, offers a proven breakthrough strategy for turning adversaries into negotiating partners. You’ll learn how to:
• Stay in control under pressure
• Defuse anger and hostility
• Find out what the other side really wants
• Counter dirty tricks
• Use power to bring the other side back to the table
• Reach agreements that satisfy both sides’ needs
Getting Past No is the state-of-the-art book on negotiation for the twenty-first century that will help you deal with tough times, tough people, and tough negotiations. You don’t have to get mad or get even. Instead, you can get what you want!

Essential
Good for work and personal life. Could have prevented a lot of problems if I’d known this information sooner.

Doesn’t really give enough details
Very general information and uses examples that skim over the details of how to deal with a difficult person. He almost over simplifies things. It’s very short which is a positive but he doesn’t give you enough information to use his methods effectively.

Thin on real content
Even though the information in the book is valid, the information contained is nothing new
