"My long-term colleague, Brian Dietmeyer is a master at taking leading edge ideas in negotiation, developing them and crafting them for the experienced negotiation professional. He combines the best that academia has to offer with real world expertise and a deep appreciation for the current competitive environment. While I have had the opportunity to interact with and teach with many negotiation scholars, Brian’s perspective always provides me with new and very unique insight."*
