How to Argue and Win Every Time by Gerry Spence

(My Original Blog Post: http://ping.fm/D2iI8)
I am listening right now to a 2 audio tape cassette titled How to Argue and Win Every Time: At Home, At Work, In Court, everywhere, every day.�� The inside jacket said if you enjoy listening to this, you may also be interested in You can negotiate anything by Herb Cohen, You've got to be believed to be heard, by Bert Decker, and Selling You, by Napolean Hill.��� This is actually very good, it tells you how to capture people's attention.�� It tells you what to say and what not to say to be heard.� He focuses on how to get listened to.� One quote I like is "To be liked one must be respected, to be respected one must be believed, to be believed one must be believable...." It's a longer quote then this.� He talks a lot about smiling and telling the truth, is known for speaking at different events.

It talks a lot about arguing in relationships, and sometimes losing.�� He talks about following the pain. He says healthy relationships will have anger. He even talks about following the pain for yourself.� Detect it, but later on deal with it, examine it.� He talks about how to talk to children.� There is a segment on arguing at work, and understanding the corporate game.� What do we want from the boss, what can we say to get a raise, how can he/she implement our ideas, how can we get respect.� Your releationship with your employer, how does it work. He talks a lot about the difference from people and corporations, and recognizing the differences.� He talks about arguing for a raise, and how it could benefit everyone.

This tape set was different than what I thought, and I would recommend it.
