We negotiate constantly. In work, and in life. As we try to get the 'best deal', it can feel like a tug of war - without the fun. Yet what if the process was more collaborative, and even laid the foundations for a strong future relationship? In Do Deal, music lawyers Richard Hoare and Andrew Gummer share their refreshing approach to negotiation.

Soon you'll be approaching the bargaining table with new skills and greater confidence, regardless of the cards you're holding. Deal?
