Napoleon Hill, in “Think and Grow Rich”, wrote about the importance of a positive mental attitude. Dr. Edward de-Bono coined the concepts of “Six Thinking Hats” and Lateral thinking. Now, Prof. Shirli Kopelman brings a fresh, new attitude about negotiating, by helping you wear only one hat, that might change the way you communicate in life, not only in negotiations.Becoming a genuine negotiator is about integrating yourself. It’s about simultaneously being you, for example, a CEO, a father, a husband, an uncle, a professional speaker, a citizen, a friend, or so on.Kopelman shows us how we develop fixed mindset attitudes in our negotiations, which lead to leaving money on the table. The book is more than a theory. Kopelman demonstrates how to adopt her new mindset for success.The process of negotiating genuinely begins with the internal question, “Who am I when I negotiate?” Then, the book shows you how to find the different hats you wear in different situations, before you integrate them to “Your hat”. It’s a fun exercise which makes the book be more effective than one might think before reading it. After applying the process it enables you to be more creative, cooperative and competitive, in order to achieve beyond what you might know about “win-win” outcomes.To be both cooperative AND competitive requires us to focus on the word be, and the book shows you the process to start focusing on that. I recommend reading it twice. First, read it from cover to cover, in order to get used to the new concepts. Then, read it slowly, apply the exercises, and focus on being yourself in every moment you deal with people.
