The Knack of Negotiating (Kindle Edition)

Review & Description

As a sequel to his popular KNACK of Selling: face-to-face, Keith Rowe expands his time-tested interpersonal skills material to address the essential elements of successful negotiation. While the principles of negotiation can apply to everything from the relatively frivolous excitement of buying a new digital television to the deadly seriousness of negotiating a hostage release, the real focus here is on the commercial buying and selling role, where the ongoing trading relationship goes hand in hand with securing the deal.

This is a 'must have' reference for marketing and product managers, trade salespeople, those reseller buyers or purchasing officers who sit across the table from them, and the retail managers and salespeople who ultimately on-sell the proposition to the consumer. It should prove invaluable to anyone involved in the face-to-face challenges of negotiating the passage of products and services through the supply chain.As a sequel to his popular KNACK of Selling: face-to-face, Keith Rowe expands his time-tested interpersonal skills material to address the essential elements of successful negotiation.

First tagged by CrabbyCats
Customer tags: communications, communication skills, communication

Review & Description

Accessible and practical, Designing Messages for Development Communication takes the reader step by step through the process of designing audience-responsive messages in the Third World. Bella Mody takes the media producer through an audience research-based methodology to bridge the cultural and informational distance between senders and receivers. A discussion of the origins and nature of media use in national development over the last 30 years forms the introductory background against which the author reviews the current research on media effects. Mody presents audience research as a systematic device for the involvement of message receivers in decisions concerning message design, that is, what the message needs to say and how. This volume instructs development and communication planners, as well as media workers, first to listen to the audience so as to determine which information the audience needs and in what form they can process it most effectively and, then, to pretest messages before they are produced in their final form. A valuable tool for the media producer's problem of the "invisible audience" in mass communication, this volume is essential reading not only for students and teachers of development communication, but for media users and media producers who produce messages to support development. "The book will be of great help to those who work in the field on the facilitating level, training people to be future trainers in the field of development supporting communication." --Massacommunicatie "In this very welcome book . . . the author has done a very good job of turning development (support) communication 'common sense' into 'practical academic sense.' She has shown in a practical way that it is not enough only to propound high-sounding academic theories about common sense-based participatory development communication and then fail to show how they work in real life, as many of us have done and continue to do. The author has married theory to practice by showing media practitioners how it can/has been done." --Media Development Read more
