"Distinguished diplomat Ambassador Wendy Sherman brings readers inside the negotiating room to show how to put diplomatic values like courage, power, and persistence to work in their own lives." -- Amazon.com.

During her time as the lead US negotiator of the Iran nuclear deal and throughout her distinguished career, Sherman has amassed tremendous expertise in the most pressing foreign policy issues of our time. Throughout her life she has relied on values that have shaped her approach to work and leadership: authenticity, effective use of power and persistence, acceptance of change, and commitment to the team. Now she takes readers inside the world of international diplomacy to show why good work in her field is so hard to do -- and how we can learn to apply core skills of diplomacy to the challenges in our own lives. -- adapted from jacket
