Review by Booklist Review

Getting to Yes (1991), by William Fisher and others, was just the beginning. Diamond, lawyer, journalist, and professor, using information and ideas gathered from his teachings, has further honed (and perfected) the art of goal-getting in today's world, no matter what the specific personal or business objective. His 12 invisible strategies, from goals are paramount to prepare and practice, become the framework for achievement. This does not represent a win-win mentality, as he carefully points out; rather, his type of negotiation is transparent and based on trust, recognizing that personal relationships will always make or break the outcome. Think of this as a series of coaching sessions, facilitated by an expert with more than 20 years' experience, filled with real-life examples and step-by-step exercises.--Jacobs, Barbara Copyright 2010 Booklist
