Along the way, they share time-tested principles for:

• Approaching each negotiation with fresh eyes, since no two deals are exactly alike
• Cultivating patience, persistence, and a focus on the big picture
• Building credibility and a reputation rooted in ethical excellence
• Creating leverage, a sense of urgency, and other key negotiating tactics
• Knowing when (and how) to protect your clients from themselves
• . . . and much more.
