Sword in the Boardroom

Winning for the benefit of all concerned. There is no other way! In a synthesis of the teachings of Musashi's Book of Five Rings and Sun Tzu's Art of War (two of the author's best selling books) Mr. Kaufman expresses the views of the masters to address realistic strategies for the development of negotiation skills for todays world without ambiguous metaphor and academic phraseology. This book readily dispels the naive notion of a win win mentality. The inlcuded exercises empower the reader to learn the true meaning of universality in negotiations while focusing on the attitudes needed for personal victory. The reader learns from a distinguished martial arts grandmaster and educator how to understand individual motivation while being introduced to the concept of the Spirit of the Thing Itself that is the definitive force of the unverse.
