Praise

“William Ury brings a marvelous blend of experience, insight, integrity and warmth to his work. In this wonderful book he teaches us how to say No—with grace and effect—so that we might create even better Yes.” —Jim Collins, author of Good to Great
 
“Almost any brief comment on The Power of a Positive No would be trite. Suffice it to say that if I’d had and used this book for the last 25 years, I would have doubtless avoided innumerable heartaches and headaches and tattered personal and professional relationships. ‘Original’ is an embarrassingly overused word on book dust jackets, but, simply, this all-important book stands alone on a subject that underpins, like no other, jndividual and organizational effectiveness.” —Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence
 
“The world’s biggest shared secret is that most of us say yes when we really want to say no, in both our professional and private lives. Bill Ury generously provides us with insights and techniques to turn this malady into win-win solutions. This is a wise and powerful book.” —John Naisbitt, author of Megatrends
 
“No matter whether you are negotiating compensation with the toughest CFO or a curfew for your teenager, this book teaches us a critical and counterintuitive lesson. You can say no and still be nice.  Simple, straightforward and easy to read, The Power of a Positive No is a yes on our reading list.” —Linda Kaplan Thaler and Robin Koval, authors of The Power of Nice: How to Conquer the Business World with Kindness
