succinct, down-to-earth and focused on the essentials - just what I wanted and got! However, certainly no substitute for a negotiation course e.g. as part of an MBA. Overall a bit colourless.

Best short and brief video as well as presentations. It helped me lot to learn new styles and approches towards "negotiations" which is part of daily life these days. Thanks to the team and Coursera.
