From the Boardroom to the Page

Derek is the author of 10 books on negotiation, persuasion, and presentation. His writing translates the frameworks he uses with executive teams into practical guides that any reader can pick up and apply.

Each book is drawn directly from four decades of real world experience. Not theory. Not motivational platitudes. Practical language and frameworks that work in real conversations, in real situations, where the outcome actually matters.

"Anyone who negotiates anything should have a copy on their desk."
