Join a live call with the Wharton School’s negotiation expert
Stuart Diamond, Wharton negotiation expert.
Date: Tues. May 3
Time: Noon, Eastern time
GlobalPost is pleased to invite you to a webinar with Stuart Diamond, regarded by many as the world's foremost negotiator.
While Diamond is not widely known to the general public, he has a cult following among many of the world's most powerful executives and government leaders — and for good reason: He shows them how to save a fortune and get what they want in their work and personal lives.
His negotiation course is the most popular class at the prestigious Wharton School. Over the past twenty years it has earned or saved his students more than $10 billion, according to a running total kept by the students.
He will talk with GlobalPost's audience about negotiating both at home and internationally, and will discuss some of the world's more recalcitrant standoffs, such as Middle East peace.
Diamond is the author of the 2011 best-seller Getting More, a ground-breaking book featuring straight-forward negotiating techniques, taking an unusually cooperative and effective approach to this often contentious art.
His eclectic accomplishments include: helping to the end of Hollywood's Writer's Guild strike in 2008; thwarting imminent litigation in a $300 million tech merger; and persuading 3,000 people in Bolivia to grow bananas instead of illicit coca,
The president of Global Strategy Group, he has advised and negotiated in more than 40 countries, serving a client list of Global 100 companies, the UN and heads of state. He holds an MBA from Wharton and a JD from Harvard Law School. Previously, as a NY times journalist, he won the Pulitzer Prize for coverage of the 1986 space shuttle Challenger disaster. He is also the Chairman and CEO of Four Star Aviation in St. Thomas.
Diamond will be interviewed by David Case, director of GlobalPost Research. He will take questions from the audience. (If you would like to suggest a question in advance of the call, please email davidcase@globalpost.com.)
