Why do some people always seem to get the better deal — the raise, the discount, the compromise everyone can live with — while everyone else settles for less?
The answer isn't confidence, aggression, or charm. It's a set of hidden psychological patterns that skilled negotiators read and use, often without their counterpart ever noticing them.
The Human Negotiation Code pulls back the curtain on those patterns. Drawing on real diplomatic and ministerial experience — including high-stakes negotiations with the European Commission, Frontex, and EU migration policy — author Loizos Michael translates the tools professionals use at the highest levels into a system anyone can use at a kitchen table, a salary review, or a boardroom.
Inside, you will learn how to:
- Think like a diplomat: play the long game, save face on both sides, and build agreement one small step at a time
- Use core frameworks like BATNA and ZOPA to know your walk-away point before you ever sit down
- Uncover the hidden interest behind a stated position — the real "why" beneath every demand
- Win without creating enemies, so today's deal doesn't cost you tomorrow's relationship
- Negotiate confidently across cultures, hierarchies, and language barriers
- Wield silence as your most underused negotiating tool
- Stay calm and think clearly under pressure, deadlines, and ultimatums
- Recognize and disarm bad-faith tactics without becoming combative yourself
- Negotiate salary, raises, and money matters with data instead of nerves
- Hold your own over email, text, and video calls, where every pause counts
- Build a negotiating style that is authentically yours, not a borrowed script
- Hold your ground even against AI-screened processes and automated systems
Eight detailed case studies, a catalogue of the mistakes that quietly sink good negotiations, and a full set of appendices — a negotiation-prep worksheet, a quick-reference phrase guide, ready-to-send email templates, a self-assessment, and a 30-day practice plan — turn every chapter into something you can use in your very next conversation.
Whether you are asking for a raise, closing a business deal, resolving a family dispute, or negotiating a contract that matters, The Human Negotiation Code gives you the same hidden psychology and structured thinking that shapes decisions in boardrooms, ministries, and negotiating tables around the world, explained clearly enough to use today.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
