This hands-on book explains the basics of how to prepare for and conduct a negotiation, and offers specific strategies for negotiating effectively with employees, bosses, customers, vendors, and other key groups HR professionals consistently work with.

Today's HR professionals work side by side with senior executives to devise a strategy for their organizations and to marshal the talent and resources to implement it. That means going beyond the traditional HR domain and mastering the fundamentals of all aspects of business and management. The Business Literacy for HR Professionals series, developed in conjunction with the Society for Human Resource Management, is designed to help HR professionals do exactly that. Covering essential areas such as negotiation, decision making, change management, finance, and more, these highly practical books will help HR professionals in their goal to be true strategic partners who bring additional bottom line value to their organizations.

The Business Literacy for HR Professionals Series is a co-branded line of books developed jointly between HBSP and SHRM (the Society for Human Resource Management). SHRM is the world’s largest professional association devoted to human resource management.
