Harvard professor and negotiation adviser Deepak Malhotra shows how to defuse even the most potentially explosive situations and to find success when things seem impossible in this fully expanded upon second edition.

Some negotiations are easy. Others are more difficult. And then there are situations that seem completely hopeless. Malhotra identifies three broad approaches for breaking deadlocks and resolving conflicts, and draws out scores of actionable lessons using behind-the-scenes stories of fascinating real-life negotiations, including:

• drafting of the US Constitution
• ending bitter disputes in the NFL and NHL
• and beating the odds in complex business situations.

He also shows how these same principles and tactics can be applied in everyday life, whether in a job interview or even negotiating with children. Brand new to this edition is a chapter on challenges facing today's world including how to effectively negotiate in virtual spaces, incorporate AI in your toolkit, and tackle increased polarization.

With conflict escalating and no one willing to back down, Malhotra reminds us that negotiation is always, fundamentally, about human interaction. No matter how high the stakes the object of negotiation is to engage with other human beings in a way that leads to better understandings and agreements. The principles and strategies in this book will help you do this more effectively in every situation.

The new edition of this internationally acclaimed guide to remote and hybrid leadership comes with an updated and enriched framework for the modern workplace. It introduces new principles and retains proven strategies for effective leadership across distances.

When The Long-Distance Leader was first published, it was pre-pandemic and remote work was in its infancy with 30% of managers leading at a distance—now that number is well over 50%.

As more organizations adopt a remote workforce, the challenges of leading at a distance become more urgent than ever. The cofounders of the Remote Leadership Institute, Kevin Eikenberry and Wayne Turmel, show leaders how to guide their teams by recalling the foundational principles of leadership whether their teams are remote, hybrid, co-working, or something entirely new!

The authors' "Three-O" Model refocuses leaders to think about outcomes, others, and ourselves—elements of leadership that remain unchanged, whether employees are down the hall or halfway around the world. By pairing it with the Remote Leadership Model, which emphasizes using technology as a tool and not a distraction, leaders can navigate the terrain of managing teams wherever they are.

This second edition features updated exercises that ensure projects stay on track, keep productivity and morale high, and build lasting relationships, along with a new chapter on hybrid workplaces.

In a world of chaos, how can generative AI help leaders lead?

Over the next decade, all leaders will be augmented with some form of generative artificial intelligence, or GenAI. For the best leaders, this will mean dramatic improvement. For mediocre leaders, this will mean persistent confusion, distraction, and pretense. With futureback thinking—looking ten years ahead, then planning backward from future to next to now—this third edition of Leaders Make the Future shows how people can improve their leadership skills while expanding their human perspective.

Now 75 percent revised and expanded with resources from the Institute for the Future, this new edition is organized around ten future leadership skills:
Augmented futureback curiosity
Augmented clarity
Augmented dilemma flipping
Augmented bio-engaging
Augmented immersive learning
Augmented depolarizing
Augmented commons creating
Augmented smart mob swarming
Augmented strength with humility
Human calming

AI-augmented leadership will be key for any organization to tackle the uncertainty of the future. And by incorporating practical methodologies, ethical guidelines, and innovative leadership practices, this book will help leaders develop their clarity and moderate their certainty.

“I have used his definitions of trust and distrust in every book I’ve written, because they are practical and actionable and, at the same time, deep and meaningful. It was important to me to dig into these definitions and explore how they play out at work, in relationships, and in our everyday lives.”
—Brené Brown, bestselling author of Dare to Lead
