Resolve
Negotiating Life’s Conflicts with Greater Confidence
By Hal Movius
If you dread conflict, you’re not alone. Research suggests that interpersonal conflict is the biggest daily stressor we face, and most of us go through life avoiding potential conflicts at work and at home, or giving in when we feel pressured. In Resolve, psychologist and negotiation expert Hal Movius shows you how you can handle life’s negotiations more effectively and with less stress by developing three distinct types of confidence: mastery, awareness, and poise.

Become a more confident negotiator
Drawing on decades of research in negotiation and psychology, along with more recent advances in social neuroscience, this book delivers science-backed insights and effective tools to boost your confidence in mastery, awareness, and poise, so you can be more effective in resolving conflicts—from spontaneous flare-ups at home to planned business negotiations.
In Resolve, you’ll learn:
- How to acquire genuine confidence, regardless of personality traits
- How to transform different types of conflicts into negotiations
- How to cope if you feel yourself becoming flustered in a dispute
Negotiation is a kind of superpower for conflict resolution, with applications far beyond the boardroom. You don’t have to behave aggressively, change your personality, or take professional training in order to become a great negotiator. Read Resolve to master effective negotiation techniques and learn how to use them confidently to resolve conflicts at work and at home.
