    The unique approach to negotiation and conflict management provided in this book makes success in difficult conversations seem achievable. I appreciate that he first addresses the psychological and emotional barriers people face in difficult conversations before addressing specific strategies. After reading the book, I feel significantly more confident in my abilities to navigate these conversations effectively so I can get more of what I want without jeopardizing relationships.

    Kwame breaks down a challenging ability (negotiation) and makes you believe itā€™s doable. Not only is it doable, that you too can do it.And he does it simply by showing the reader what he has done and how that has turned out. It allows me to not only make my own decision but it empowers me, which is an amazing feeling. Take this excerpt on imposter syndrome, which I found to be relatable and what I am going to keep in mind moving forward.ā€œMy solution to imposter syndrome is to shift my focus from the fear of failure to the fear of regret.ā€œ – Loc 455Iā€™ve read a lot of negotiation books, and I would place this one up there with the good ones, like ā€œNever Split the Difference.ā€

    Many leaders (who are otherwise high achievers) suddenly find themselves struggling — and sometimes selling themselves short — in high value negotiations.In this practical read, Kwame outlines three key steps to find the confidence in conflict we all want by showing us how to acknowledge emotion, be curious with compassion, and solve problems jointly. It’s the book for the rest of us to provide a clear roadmap in the toughest situations. If you follow this roadmap, you’ll find the courage you want to take the next step.

    I think for someone who constantly goes through unavoidable conflicts through my walk of life, I found a piece of mind after this. A phenomenal read which applied to all my previous situations. Conflict is not a issue, itā€™s an opportunity. This read breaks down everything you need to know about yourself and how to engage in conflict resolution. The topics of mindset and confidence really struck my emotional cords. Must read, and re-read.

    Over the course of my professional life, I have read many books on the topics of negotiation.Most books spend a lot of time talking about tricks, gambits, etc.This book is unique because it explores the psychology behind negotiation. Also, the author shares unique examples and stories on how to apply the compassionate curiosity framework.

    One of the most useful books I’ve ever read. Kwame talks about how to handle, in the best way possible, difficult and normal conversations and negotiations. The book offers a practical framework that’s called the compassionate curiosity framework. It’s a brilliant yet simple technique. It can be used anywhere by anyone and it helps to position yourself for a better chance of being successful and getting the most(whatever that is) of those conversations and negotiations.The book flows nicely and is easy to read. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to significantly improve their communication skills and become more successful.

    Wow. A negotiation book that isn’t boring and stuffy. There’s so much good stuff in this book. A few of my favs:1) “Compassionate Curiosity” – he talks about this like turning the lights on in a dark room. After he says it, you think, “Duh! Of course I need to spend some time figuring out where the other person is sincerely coming from”…yet before you read it you just want to hurry up and get on with YOUR agenda in the situation.2) Emotions – I’m guilty of trying to separate these out during conflicts and negotiations. It seems like they’re muddying factors. He describes how to acknowledge them and use them because they ARE a factor. The biggest insight for me was when he said that you get “emotional requests veiled as substantive requests.” To me, this means we are receiving emotional requests all the time. It’s just that we’re delusional and we think we’re more professional if we stick to the facts. And the other person thinks they’re more professional if they present the facts. But then the most important thing to them never gets acknowledged aloud and you’re dancing around the core issue without even knowing it.3) Anxiety – that this is a self-focused emotion. Oooh. I hadn’t thought of it that way. That’s a motivating way to move away from selfish thinking.

    Most people don’t enjoy conflict or even the thought of negotiating with another person. In his book, Kwame shares a fantastic framework for how to have those difficult conversations but in a way that gets to the heart of the matter and does it in a way that could help both parties. The Compassionate Curiosity focus helps with removing the emotional (and dramatic) element from conflict or challenging conversations. And like he says…the best things in life are on the other side of those difficult conversations!

    I love that Kwame focuses on “Working from the inside out” right from the start. The idea that we have a problem that lies outside of us and not within us forces us to look for methods and strategy to overcome others but as he says, “Your issue isn’t tactical; it’s psychological. Once yo realize it’s internal you can work to solve the problem” In he pages that follow he builds from that foundation to detail what really happens in these tense moments of communication and what to do when they come up to bring resolution that benefits both partiesI highly recommend this book if you want to permanently change the way you approach and experience conflict for the better!

    I’ve been impressed with Kwame for some time now. He’s one of just a few people who I invited onto my podcast twice. This book is a delightful, highly-readable, engaging compilation of both great research along with fun anecdotes. It reminds me of Robert Cialdini. Outstanding.

    I found the book helpful in several ways:The section titled ā€˜The Brain: Whatā€™s Going On in Thereā€™ strengthened my understanding of the neurology involved in human behavior.ā€˜Understanding Our Emotional Barriersā€™ reminded me of the importance of acknowledging my feelings.ā€˜How We See Ourselves, Others, and the Outcomeā€™ challenged me to give others the benefit of the doubt, and encouraged me to test relationships early and often. It also challenged my perfectionist tendencies.One of my favorite sentences in the book is a very succinct expression of a strong conviction I hold: ā€œThe quality of the answer depends on the quality of the question.ā€I found the discussion of implicit bias to be both honest and even-handed.The authorā€™s podcast has led me to see every interaction as a negotiation. Personally, I see this book helping me most in professional and ministry interactions, because those tend to be the most difficult. I have lots of room for improvement, and the book can be something I refer back to for reference and calibration of my negotiation skills.Even with so much helpful content, the book was a quick and easy read. Kwameā€™s writing style made the ideas very accessible. I think it will continue to help lots of other people for a long time.

    Kwame Christian has nailed it in this book. Relevant in any field or situation where an exchange of any kind is being made. Be it an interview, a sale, relationship, family interaction, workplace interactions, etc. This book literally provides an excellent framework for understanding and taking control of the processes that lead to better outcomes. I wasn’t sure what I was in for when I bought this after hearing Kwame for the first time on the Awesome at Your Job Podcast and I honestly thought it was going to be a “dud” but I am proud those feelings were wrong. This book is worth double the asking price. Great job. Also, this would make an excellent gift.

    What a wonderful, easy to read handbook on how to handle difficult conversations. This book is full of insightful gems and practical tools that I plan to practice…because persuasive communication and good negotiation is a skill not a talent.
