Negotiate step by step

Achieve measurably better results.

Alain Lempereur, Aurélien Colson and Andreas Winheller

Publisher: Frankfurter Allgemeine Buch

Publication year: 2025

Pages: 368

ISBN: 9783962512170

Many managers go into negotiations relatively unprepared, complain the authors, all of whom are experts in negotiating. In their guide, they provide far more than just rhetoric tips. It is more of a strategic handbook that sees negotiation as a controllable process. Instead of relying on intuition, the authors focus on the „three Ps“: people, problem and process. The combination of classic Harvard theory with operational techniques of police and hostage negotiation is particularly valuable. Thanks to numerous practical examples and checklists, the book is immediately applicable.

In order to be successful in an increasingly complex and dynamic environment, many companies are turning to self-organized, agile teams. They promise flexibility and resilience. In practice, however, many approaches fail because the necessary prerequisites are lacking. This anthology deals with precisely these challenges. It explains the advantages of self-organization, but also discusses the potential pitfalls in everyday business life. Ten practical examples of self-organization in SMEs round off the more theoretical considerations.

Marketing depends on knowing your customers. Only those who know what makes a customer tick or how a customer would like to be addressed can create customized offers. This book combines two decisive levers in an innovative way: the systematic collection of meaningful data and the development of psychographic profiles. Both together open up new possibilities for addressing customers and maintaining contacts. A clearly structured, comprehensible guide for anyone who wants to give their marketing strategy a solid foundation.
