Deal Diva How to Negotiate Your Way to Success Without Selling Your Soul
Why are women still not equal to men, either in the home or in the workplace? Although much lip service has been paid in recent years to women having ‘arrived’ in the traditional domain of men - that of business - if you look just beneath the surface, you will find that they are paid less, are not promoted as readily and are generally not taken as seriously as men. But who is to blame? A big part of the problem is women themselves. They don’t know how to get what they want. In short, they do not know how to negotiate. Deal Diva will arm women with the negotiating expertise that will allow them to hold their own in business and in life. From persuading your five-year-old to go to bed on time to getting the best price on a new car or closing a multimillion-rand business deal, the principles and processes in this book can be applied equally well at home and in the workplace, to women’s private and professional lives. By the end of this enlightening and empowering book, the reader will have recaptured her lost negotiating instincts and life skills. She will become the deal-making diva she’s always dreamt of being, and she will be able to make the deals that she wants.
