Persuasion and Negotiation: Don't Choose Lose/Lose!

Learn why the only negotiation paradigm which is equal to a win/win is 'no deal', and how to avoid choosing lose/lose—it's more common than you think.

From my Borders Bookstore class Commonsense Customer-Centric Thinking; more clips on the way.

Presentation: An Overview of Commonsense Entrepreneurship

My presentation on 16 November 2007 hosted by Pavilion Realty in Lincoln, California. We discussed six commonsense topics for entrepreneurs:

  • Mentality
    • 1. It's Not About Money
    • 2. There is No Reality; Only Perception
  • Management
    • 3. Joe versus Responsibility & Authority
    • 4. Is there a Gap in your GAAP?
  • Marketing
    • 5. Talking to Friends is Better than Talking to Strangers
    • 6. People Don't Buy What They Need; They Buy What They Want
