FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description If you thought that "feng shui" was just interior design, think again! Feng shui is the ancient Chinese system of harmonizing the person with his or her surroundings through the subtle manipulation of chi, or universal energy. "Negotiate with Feng Shui" teaches you how to sense and balance chi in your body and your environment, creating a win-win situation for both parties involved in any negotiation. We all negotiate every day, although we might not think of many of our social interactions as negotiations. Whether you are buying a car, closing a business deal, hammering out an international treaty, or just dealing with an unruly teenager, you can use "feng shui" to analyze advantageous locations, select auspicious moments, and maximize compatibility between the parties. Negotiate with "Feng Shui" is unlike any other feng shui book. Author Jose Armilla shows you how to apply feng shui techniques to everyday situations like buying a car or asking for a pay raise. Using the straightforward techniques presented in this book, you will: -Learn how to sense positive and negative "chi" in the body and in the environment -Discover the secret to picking auspicious times and dates for important meetings -Learn how to "feng shui" your present house as well as your dream house, including examples of positive and negative layouts -Get tips on bargaining - everywhere from the flea market to the Internet -Learn ancient blessings that improve the vibrations of the meeting place In part two of this groundbreaking book, the author, a retired United States diplomat, examines how "feng shui" works in the "real world." Discover the role "feng shui" has played in historic peace talks associated with the Opium War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Cold War. Negotiate the "feng shui" way and encourage success and happiness for everyone involved! Author Biography Jose Armilla is a retired psychologist, freelance writer and a retired diplomat. Excerpt from Book All of you have probably tried your hand at some kind of negotiation at one time or another . . . maybe without even realizing it. As a student, maybe you negotiated with a teacher to obtain a higher grade on a paper. Or as a car buyer, you might have worked judiciously with the sales person to lower the cars sticker price. Or then again, as a son, daughter, husband, or wife, perhaps you talked slowly and persuasively to obtain some wish or desire close to your heart. In fact, it would probably be hard for you to go through one day without performing some kind of informal negotiation with somebody in your life. And you dont just want to talk; you want to succeed. You may look to the worlds of negotiation, as in business or politics, to pick up tips that you can use in your more personal dealings. But even if you could talk to these experts, they probably look upon their skills as privileged information, not to be shared with the likes of you. Some of them may not even be aware of those inherent qualities that make them skilled negotiators, and couldnt tell you about them even if they wanted to. But do not despair. Help is on the way in the form of this book. A modern authority, Thomas Colosi of the American Arbitration Association, defines negotiation as a decision-making process in which the parties across the table decide the outcome by themselves. This notion rules out any decisive influence of interested parties who are not at the negotiating table. This "here-and-now situation" shapes the negotiators goals, strategies, intermediate objectives, and eventual tactics. Ancient Chinese secrets are in full agreement with this modern view of negotiation when the location is considered a key ingredient. Timing and the personal compatibility of both sides are also important. Part One of this book contains those secret methods that you can use to improve your negotiations in everyday life. These secrets promote successful agreements between participants in all kinds of personal relationships in everyday affairs. Chinese officials used these very same secrets in their first negotiation with American diplomats in 1844. The Americans, arriving in a flotilla of U.S. Navy warships, had alarmed the Imperial Court. The Chinese worried about the presence of so much loose firepower in the hands of uninvited barbarians. The Chinese responded by unilaterally choosing the auspicious time and place for negotiation. They let the Americans cool their heels for four months. When they finally met with them, they arranged to have their discussions at the sacred inner shrine of a Chinese temple. The dealmaker turned out to be a windowless room with one door. There they concluded a Treaty of Friendship and Commerce that eventually guided Sino-American relations until World War II. Though the Americans were puzzled by the Chineses diplomatic behavior, they clearly benefited from its power to move the talks expeditiously and produce an agreement of high quality. This book lifts the veil of secrecy that has existed for centuries. In Part Two, the effectiveness of these secret methods is illustrated in vignettes from diplomatic history that demonstrate both successful and failed negotiations. These vignettes are based on factual historical records. They were packed with drama because the stakes were high. Failure in such negotiations often created great tensions, and even wars. Behind most political negotiations is the threat of force. Effectiveness in negotiation is ultimately measured not only by the mere balance of forces, but also by the close cooperation in implementing an agreement. When diplomats sit down with their opposite numbers, they adjust to the atmospherics in the room.
