About this book

Drawing on work at the Harvard Negotiation Project, this book examines why certain conversations become difficult and why people avoid them. It considers how conflicting experiences, beliefs and feelings affect communication in families, workplaces and other relationships. Examples and a structured approach address the challenge of discussing disagreements without allowing anger, hurt or certainty to overwhelm the exchange.

Teaches at Harvard Law and came out of the same Negotiation Project that produced Getting to Yes. Difficult Conversations argues that every hard exchange is really three at once: what happened, the feelings nobody is naming, and what the disagreement implies about who each person is.
