You Can Negotiate Anything The World’s Best Negotiator Reveals How to Get What You Want in Any Situation

:Book Summary

In You Can Negotiate Anything, legendary negotiator Herb Cohen presents a powerful and practical guide to mastering the art of negotiation in everyday life. Drawing on decades of real-world experience—from corporate disputes to international crises—Cohen demonstrates that negotiation is not limited to boardrooms or politics; it happens constantly in daily interactions.
