Beyond Winning
Conflict is inevitable, in both deals and disputes. Yet when clients call in the lawyers to haggle over who gets how much of the pie, traditional hard-bargaining tactics can lead to ruin. Too often, deals blow up, cases don’t settle, relationships fall apart, justice is delayed. Beyond Winning charts a way out of our current crisis of confidence in the legal system. It offers a fresh look at negotiation, aimed at helping lawyers turn disputes into deals, and deals into better deals, through practical, tough-minded problem-solving techniques. In this step-by-step guide to conflict resolution, the authors describe the many obstacles that can derail a legal negotiation, both behind the bargai...
Divorced from Reality
"Over the past thirty years, there has been a dramatic shift in the way the legal system approaches family disputes. Traditionally, family disputes were resolved through an 'adversary' system: opposing parties appealed to a judge who determined which party was at fault and how the marital assets - including the children - should be divided. Now, many family courts are opting for a 'problem-solving' model in which courts attempt to restructure families by resolving both legal and nonlegal issues. At the same time, American families have changed dramatically. Divorce rates have slowed, while the number of children born and raised outside of marriage has increased sharply. Grandparents and same...
Feedback is een cadeautje
Eigenlijk is het leven één grote feedbacksessie: dagelijks krijgen we advies en kritiek van vrienden, familie, collega's, klanten, leidinggevenden en zelfs van huisdieren. En ook al weten we dat feedback zeer waardevol kan zijn, vaak negeren we het of herkennen het überhaupt niet. Feedback is een cadeautje is het eerste boek dat focust op succesvol feedback ontvangen. Hoe komt het dat we kritiek kunnen ervaren als een aanval op onze identiteit? Waarom vinden we zo snel dat de ander 'geen recht van spreken' heeft? Hoeveel nuttige inzichten laten we liggen omdat 'het nu niet het juiste moment is'? Goed feedback kunnen ontvangen heeft allerlei voordelen: je relaties worden er sterker door, je zelfvertrouwen groeit en mensen vinden het prettiger om met je samen te werken. Op humorvolle wijze en met vele praktijkvoorbeelden laten Douglas Stone en Sheila Heen zien hoe iedereen zich kan trainen in het herkennen en verwerken van feedback. Want of je nu in een grote of kleine organisatie werkt, binnen een team opereert, een relatie of een gezin hebt: feedback is en blijft een cadeautje.

The work addresses pragmatism and interactionist sociology and illuminates the cross-fertilization between these two fields of studies. Special emphasis is placed on the interactionists’ search for a logic of inquiry sensitive to th...
