A former international hostage negotiator for the FBI offers a new, field-tested approach to high-stakes negotiations effective in any situation.

Reaching the pinnacle of his profession, he became the FBIs lead international kidnapping negotiator. Never Split the Difference takes you inside the world of high-stakes negotiations, revealing the skills that helped Voss and his colleagues succeed when it mattered most. In this practical guide, he shares nine effective principles you too can use to become more persuasive in both your professional and personal life.

Every so often, you read a book that becomes a part of you. For some, it's a childhood-defining series like Harry Potter. Others find themselves in poetry or memoirs. My recent pivotal read was Chris Voss's Never Split the Difference . . . He showed me the importance of selling solutions to customers' problems rather than simply features. Along the way, he refined my communication style in everything from high-stakes negotiations to cold emails. * Forbes *
