Lifemoney

Brad Turk

NegoLogic

Peter Frensdorf

Negotiating releases the most basic feelings in us – we want to win, to come out on top, to be congratulated on getting one over on the opposition.
Well forget it. To win the money – every time – you have to forget your own feelings and leave the feel good emotion of winning to others. Instead you give your opponent the ‘feeling’ of winning, because ‘winning’ means nothing. It is a sensation you can switch on in others. Meanwhile you walk away with exactly what you came for.
NegoLogic presents practical psychological negotiating based on scientific research. When we are negotiating the details don’t matter that much – the money is not important – but the way in which we reach the point of agreement, our skill in dealing with human interaction, is all important. You can make your opponent feel satisfied with the situation while you get the results you want – your price, your sale, your terms.
We all make decisions based on impulses yet we all look for a rational, ‘valid’ explanation. So when you can implant in your opponent’s mind an explanation that convinces them, they will be satisfied while you will be even more satisfied!
NegoLogic presents detailed, step-by-step routines to get what you want while keeping the opposition happy – in a whole range of examples. Peter Frensdorf details many, many techniques – including selecting the right opening bid, or reading the hidden meaning behind your opponent’s bids and stances, or creating the right impulses in others (right for you that is).
So forget about winning negotiations – just take the money instead!
Peter Frensdorf is an autodidact negotiator, dealing for over thirty five years with companies like Adidas, Asics, Reebok, Puma, Kangaroos, Converse, Kappa, Wrangler, Diadora, FDB and Metro among others. It is a fair estimation that he has personally negotiated over ten thousand deals in that period as negotiation consultant or for his own companies.

SNAP!

Gary Small

Most of us feel “stuck with ourselves” at one time or another – and that negative aspects of our personality are deeply ingrained from childhood or genetics so therefore cannot be altered. But new studies have shown that changing aspects of your personality IS possible, giving new hope to anyone who wants to improve results in personal, family, business, and civic relationships. Based on the latest information from the fields of neuroscience and psychology, Dr. Gary Small presents a proven program anyone can use to assess their strengths and weaknesses, and then work on changing their negatives to positives. Small provides step-by-step advice that can show results in as little as 30 days. SNAP covers the difference between genetic personality traits and how your family experiences and the community you grow up in influences your personality – the key aspects of social programming. He then explains how it is possible to “reboot” your personality in order to become a more positive person., or to improve other aspects of personality such as being an introvert versus an extravert. Included is a self-assessment that readers can also use with friends and family. Also covered will be choosing and working the right psychotherapists, the upside and drawbacks of medications and alternative holistic therapies.

The Illusion of Invincibility

Paul Williams

A Glimpse Behind the Facade of Success In  The Illusion of Invincibility , Paul Williams and Andreas Krebs take a no-punches-held look at the stories we tell ourselves about business success. The rags-to-riches tale is tempting, but we don’t have to search far to see that most organizations rise for a time, only to experience a dramatic fall from grace. Just look at some of the companies that used to be household names: Nokia, AOL, Pan Am, Woolworth and Blockbuster. Move from good to great.  You’ll learn the secrets to clear-eyed, value-driven leadership with stories from top managers from international companies, major family businesses, start-ups, consulting firms, the public sector, and NGOs. They offer lessons on how to be a successful and reflective boss in an age of digitization and disruption. Each chapter includes a “stress test” to help you to take an honest look at your own organization and yourself. Can leaders today be inspired by the Incas?  You may be surprised. When the authors added a few days to a business trip to Peru, instead of relaxing, they found themselves exploring one of the greatest civilizations in human history…with unexpected lessons about successful businesses and great leadership. The Illusion of Invincibility  examines the why of success and failure.  It’s a smart, funny, and radical look at how to build and sustain a great organization, inspired by those who have done it well…in today’s world and five hundred years ago.
