Robert Mnookin, Professor and Chair of the Negotiation Program at Harvard University Law School, addresses some of life's most challenging conflicts -- those with an adversary you don't trust, someone who has harmed you in the past or appears willing to do so in the future, or an enemy you may even feel is evil. In such disputes, a critical decision must be made: do you try to negotiate a deal, or do you resist?
Mnookin explains how to meet the challenge of making wise decisions in such conflicts. He identifies the traps -- emotional, strategic and political -- that he believes must be avoided, and the elements that should be taken into account.

its interesting the negative comments people have about people. There are some comments about William Ury in another web tube. I wish people who make these comments could get to go over to Harvard and spend a few days around these people. I'd be curious to see what the resultant comments would be. I'd bet money an expansive upgrade would flow. But perhaps I am wrong. But wouldn't it be a great experiment to see.
Petkov, what do you mean by that? We're not even sure what point of view you are advocating. The internet is full of angry people; nobody pays any attention.
this guy is just one more big liar, a shill and all around disgusting being that's just "human" in appearance only. As usual, he re writes history the way it suits him and spread lies and nothing else.
Real history proves he is just a liar, a shill and a murdered wanna be.
Nothing more to be said. I am truly disgusted.
