How do top leaders close impossible deals and get buy-in from the toughest stakeholders? James Sebenius, Professor of Business Administration at Harvard and co-founder of Harvard's Negotiation Program, has been involved with the world's most successful negotiation cases. In today's episode, he reveals the top strategies that make great negotiators. Drawing from icons like Bob Iger, Jim Baker, and Henry Kissinger, James shares the keys to negotiation that every leader needs: when to use “intermediate moves” to gain advantage, why the best negotiators think like chess players, why “setup” is everything in negotiation, and how to balance empathy with assertiveness to get results.
David Lax uns James Sebenius gehören zur Champions League der Verhandlungsführung. Das haben wir ja bereits festgestellt, als wir The Manager as Negotiator hier besprochen haben. 2006 veröffentlichten die beiden mit 3-D Negotiation ein weiteres Meisterwerk, was meine Eingangsthese nochmal untermauert. Dieses Buch liefert in meinen Augen einen größeren Mehrwert als so manches Fach, welches ich im Studium belegt hatte. Und das hängt NATÜRLICH NICHT damit zusammen, dass ich heute reifer an solche Inhalte rangehe oder mich das Thema offensichtlich mehr interessiert
