Negotiate Like You Matter Makes Good Business sen
What I liked about Negotiate Like YOU MATTER was the way it addresses self-worth. The concept of getting my mind right before negotiating was like a light bulb. Thank you the author for listening to such a thoughtful and insightful audible on negotiation. I don't have a law practice and I can already think of a dozen ways I can use the concepts including negotiating with my teens!
