The Intersection of Leadership Principles and Negotiating Techniques

As attorneys, we spend our lives negotiating – with our spouses, children, co-workers, professional colleagues and adversaries. Most of us also lead in some capacity – families, firms, civic and professional organizations.

Ironically, we may not realize that we are constantly negotiating and leading, primarily because the negotiating and leading that we do is of an everyday and frequently recurring nature, and oftentimes not of material significance.

We may not think of our negotiating styles and leadership skills as connected, but they are. Perhaps not surprisingly, many of the techniques that are utilized by successful leaders are the same techniques employed by top negotiators.
