Saw Leigh’s name on ESPN and decided to read the book on that whim. The book is easy to read! The clarity and flow of the contents are excellent. The book is empowering. The title could have read, “How to be successful …”, and still would have been very appropriate. A definite must own book.

“Half the battle in facing anger is feeling no fear. Without fear on your part, the angry individual has lost his leverage”: page 156

Didn't read it all. Leigh Stienberg really does follow the integrity route, and that is admirable, as well as it is the secret to his success. He had the luxury and freedom to choose work that he is good at and loves. Great guy, and a good book that shares his experience and work ethic and philosophy.

I'm not sure I got what I had hoped out of this. I did realize that I'm rarely in a negotiating situation, so much of the topics were less relevant. I did find some of the sports stories interesting, though not so much in an educational way.

The real Jerry Maguire.

I was looking forward to this book but was very disappointed. The books was very cookie cutter and didn't offer much insight to me on how to practically implement integrity in the workplace.

I like this book because I love football and this book shows me a little behind the sense of football.

This is a negotiation book that my husband loves and recommends often. It's heavy on sports analogies and is a bit out of date now (it was written in '98) so it's not easy to find anymore. It has some good bullet points and a handy list of "essential rules for negotiation" in the back.

Interesting book filled with examples of negotiations that the author was a part of.
