Getting to Yes with Yourself

(and Other Worthy Opponents)

De: William Ury

Narrado por: William Ury

William Ury, coauthor of the international bestseller Getting to Yes, returns with another groundbreaking book, this time asking: how can we expect to get to yes with others if we haven’t first gotten to yes with ourselves?

Renowned negotiation expert William Ury has taught tens of thousands of people from all walks of life—managers, lawyers, factory workers, coal miners, schoolteachers, diplomats, and government officials—how to become better negotiators. Over the years, Ury has discovered that the greatest obstacle to successful agreements and satisfying relationships is not the other side, as difficult as they can be. The biggest obstacle is actually our own selves—our natural tendency to react in ways that do not serve our true interests.

But this obstacle can also become our biggest opportunity, Ury argues. If we learn to understand and influence ourselves first, we lay the groundwork for understanding and influencing others. In this prequel to Getting to Yes, Ury offers a seven-step method to help you reach agreement with yourself first, dramatically improving your ability to negotiate with others.

Practical and effective, Getting to Yes with Yourself helps readers reach good agreements with others, develop healthy relationships, make their businesses more productive, and live far more satisfying lives.

Thank You. Another excellent book.

Short-to-medium, but packed with original and combinatory content, with even the exact co-creators being named by Ury at the end.

The medium is part of the message here, and Ury's steady, controlled, passionate rendition, along with the other books of his he read out, has been the key component enabling me to meet the challenge of surviving and thriving while giving comfort, love and respect, in a unique circumstance. Thank you.

I might owe you my sanity.

Loved listening to Williams wisdom!

I really enjoyed learning more about the principles of getting to yes with yourself. It taught me that in order to succeed ID defer succeed with myself.

Great common sense practices...

We all have the power to reflect but many do not see the advantages referring to it as 'rehashing or dwelling on the past' when in fact this practice strengthens us from within. It is what our mind does naturally when we sleep. So what should we not continue when we are awake. We all have the power to find the happiness we truly seek from within. This book helps provide the tools and path to do so and prosper... Be Well...

Great!

I love the way you get concious about negotiating it's not about taking its about discovering both sides deepest needs and get in common ground of what both parties are willing to GIVE not to take.

An All-Time Favorite for Me
