Mindful NEGOtiation: Becoming More Aware in the Moment, Conquering Your Ego and Getting Everyone What They Really Want

"In this era of automation and AI applications, Gaëtan... brings to light how egos and emotions are the true drivers of success or failure." —François Drolet, Director, Public Affairs, Access, Health Policy & Stakeholder Engagement, Roche Diagnostics Most people spend their lives comparing themselves to others: They want to prove themselves, they want to be accepted, they are afraid of failing or being perceived as incompetent, they want to get the best for themselves (at the price of others), or they are scared of upsetting the other person. In Mindful NEGOtiation, readers follow a young woman going through negotiation failures, personal development, self-awareness, setbacks, and growth while using the C4U™ approach. Mindful NEGOtiation is a personal guidebook to help negotiators become more mindful in the moment and help them define a different path forward. "Gaëtan is masterful in introducing the powerful role that mindfulness can play in the negotiation process. His direct and engaging writing style, his real-life examples and his provocative questions will keep you engaged from start to finish." —Charles Brassard, President of Impact Coaching Inc.
