NEGOECONOMICS™

How Two Plus Two Can Equal Forty-Two

A competitive, zero-sum mindset dominates virtually every high-level negotiation, and all sides inevitably fail to perceive or take advantage of vast amounts of hidden value. In studies of over 25,000 negotiations, the Copenhagen Business School found that over a third failed to reach a deal; another study reached the startling conclusion that businesses were forfeiting up to 42% of the total value in the transactions by failing to use all the variables available to them during the bargaining process.

Keld Jensen offers four guiding principles that will unleash the non-visible value that is being left on the table in the vast majority of commercial transactions. Using real-life anecdotes and business school research, he demonstrates the shortcomings of the traditional zero sum approach and shows the vast benefits of this new paradigm of negotiation.
