Harvard Business School Professor Michael Wheeler's book, The Art of Negotiation: How to Improvise Agreement in a Chaotic World, gets a nice review in my favorite newspaper, the Financial Times. As the reviewer, Alicia Clegg, says "Empathy and emotions – both one’s own and those of the other side – play a crucial role in negotiating and dealmaking..... Emotional awareness can help you navigate blind spots and prejudices and arm you with self-control."
Good negotiating tips include "paying close attention to what others express through body language, words and tone of voice," and if your counterpart "is unreasonable you may need to bang the table, say 'no' loudly or walk away – but it should be you, not your emotions that make the choice."
