Management Courses - Mike Clayton
The Association of College & research Libraries reviewed How to Negotiate, and said:
"How to Negotiate is very well structured and readable, and provides easy-to-understand key concepts, definitions, thoughtful questions, and exercises, as well as helpful tips and summary points at strategic locations throughout."
and...
"Clayton offers an excellent text on negotiations that can be applied not only to business but also to many aspects of everyday life."
Thank you, ACRL!

“You can become a good negotiator the same way you become a good leader: by learning and practicing.”
Andy Kaufman is my all-time favorite interviewer. We always have a great time chatting.
And never more than when he recently interviewed me for his People and Projects Podcast Episode 471.
We discussed all things Negotiation, following the release of my book, 'How to Negotiate'.
You’ll learn why negotiation is not a personality trait. Rather, it’s a process. You’ll hear about:
- the biggest mistakes people make at the start of a negotiation
- the phrases that build trust (and those that don’t), and
- Signposting the Junction in Negotiation
“Almost every conversation where two people want different things is a negotiation.”
Find the podcast here: peopleandprojectspodcast.com/ppp-471-how-to-handle… - or wherever you get your podcasts!

In June 2022, we looked at Theodore Levitt.
Levitt is best known for the word Globalization. Rumors that he coined it are wrong, but he certainly gave it prominence in the 1980s.
