With his country on the brink of war and in desperate need of a leader, his wife, Elizabeth (Helena Bonham Carter), the future Queen Mother, arranges for her husband to see an eccentric speech therapist, Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush). After a rough start, the two delve into an unorthodox course of treatment and eventually form an unbreakable bond.

Negotiate to Win! / Patrick J. Collins

No review available on this record. Title : Negotiate to Win! : Talking Your Way to What You Want Material Type: printed text Authors: Patrick J. Collins, Author Publisher: Sterling Publishing Co., Inc.New York Publication Date: 2009 Pagination: 202 p. Size: 18 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-1-402-79865-8 General note: Includes index (p. [197]-202) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Negotiation in business Class number: 658.4052 Abstract: Negotiation is not just a process, it's an attitude --one that we all can learn. Patrick Collins, an internationally recognized expert on the subject, offers an original, comprehensive guide to maximizing negotiation skills, whether in a one-on-one encounter or a larger, more formal negotiating session. Collins explains what negotiation is and isn't ("negotiation is not confrontation") and discusses ways to overcome the fear of negotiation, strategies for gaining the upper hand by manipulating the environment, and tactics tailored to negotiation type. What he offers is much more than just a guide to "magic words" or a collection of case studies; Collins provides a hard-working handbook on assessing situations and pinpointing the appropriate techniques for any given circumstance. There's great real-life advice, including details on how to negotiate at restaurants and hotels. The tips are often surprisingly, almost shockingly simple and logical--such as the suggestion to get in line behind a belligerent customer to boost your own chances for success. Readers will come away with a set of "guerrilla negotiating" tactics, and a better understanding of: * when to continue talking and when to walk away * how to identify words that sabotage your best efforts * how to identify cultural customs that will smooth the process * how to bluff for maximum effectiveness Each chapter concludes with "key thoughts" that summarize the main lessons in the preceding pages. Viewing negotiation as both science and art, Collins will help executives, managers, and almost anyone master the skills to have the upper hand in any situation. Contents note: Building your personal negotiating power; Management skills for negotiators; Advanced tactics and special situations; Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=16979
