[单项选择]You can negotiate virtually anything. Some people negotiate deals for a living. Dr Herb Cohen is one of these professional talkers, called in by companies to negotiate on their behalf. He approaches the art of negotiation as a game because, as he is usually negotiating for somebody else, he says this helps him drain the emotional content from his conversation. He is working in a competitive field and needs to avoid being too adversarial. Whether he succeeds or not, it is important to him to make a good impression so that people will recommend him.
The starting point for any deal, he believes, is to identify exactly what you want from each other. More often than not, one party will be trying to persuade the other round to their point of view. Negotiation requires two people at the end saying "yes". This can be a problem because one of them usually begins by saying "no". Top management may well reject the idea initially because it is the safer option but they would not be there if t
A. put people at ease
B. remain detached
C. be competitive
D. impress rivals
