Daniel Viñé Garcia/Getty Images. While on an investor tour in Europe, I ended a busy day by joining my boss at a nice restaurant. After he said something funny, I responded in my typical style — throwing back my head and letting out hearty, unabashed laughter. People were taken aback. They turned to stare at me. I asked my red-faced boss whether my laughter had embarrassed him. “It is pretty loud,” he muttered under his breath.

Negotiation is an art form. It requires interpersonal skills, a masterful control of language, a deep understanding of human emotion, and excellent listening skills.

MirageC/Getty Images. Corporate bribery—that is, the practice of companies paying government officials for preferential treatment — is not only illegal in dozens of countries. Studies show that it’s also counterproductive resulting in lower profit margins, return on equity , and employee morale ; costly delays as players haggle over the size of the kickback; and poverty and poor governance in the markets where they’re paid.
