I remember borrowing a friend's MBA textbook just for laughs. I particularly remember the chapter on "Negotiating", which included a boxed section that said "Your skill at negotiating will affect the outcome of the negotiations."
This reads like a loading screen tip
"You can use your backpack to store things".
To shoot things press the shoot button.
Dont take Flatulia if you're allergic to the ingredients in Flatulia. Ask your doctor about taking Flatulia
"I don't recommend Flatulia."
"Why not, doc?"
"They haven't sent a 30-something hottie around to take me to lunch yet."
“How good you are at something will dictate how good you are at that thing.”
Get this person a promotion!
Mind blown!
No way!
I know someone who told me (in French) M.B.A stands for "Moins Bon qu'Avant", that translates to "less good than before".
That does make sense in a The Art of War way. There is no magic thing you can do that will automatically finish the negotiations in your favour, you need to actually use your own skills.
I’m not following. If there was some magic set of things that you could do, you would call that set of skills negotiating.
If there was not some magic set of things you could do, then the personal skills you implement are referred to as negotiating skills.
