Chris Voss, Tahl Raz: Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It (2016, HarperBusiness) 4 stars

Review of 'Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Voss shares his "magic formulas" for negotiating. He seems to think they're foolproof, and befuddle the academics, but they seem easily gameable if you identify someone's using one of his strategies. Still, there's value in understanding anchoring, mirroring, and tactical empathy, so despite its weaknesses, this book gets a 4.5 from me and goes into my toolbox and reread pile.
