This inaugural Dealcraft episode offers tantalizingly brief glimpses of these remarkable negotiators at critical moments.

Acknowledgments: I am deeply grateful to Harvard for giving me permission to use audio excerpts from interviews I’ve conducted over the years with various Great Negotiator honorees and U.S. Secretaries of State, often with colleagues and friends such as Robert Mnookin of Harvard Law School and R. Nicholas Burns, formerly of Harvard’s Kennedy School.
