8. Part III: How to win people to
your way of thinking
 The only way to get the best of an argument is to
avoid it.
 Show respect for the other person's opinions. Never
say "you're wrong." Don't argue, instead use
diplomacy.
 If you are wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically.
Remember the old proverb, "by fighting you never
get enough, but by yielding, you get more than you
expected."
 Begin in a friendly way. Remember what Lincoln
said: A drop of honey catches more flies than a
gallon of gall."
 Get the other person saying “ yes,yes" immediately.

9. Part III: How to win people to
your way of thinking
 Let the other person do a great deal of talking, its
safety valve in handling complaints.
 Let the other person feel that the idea is his or
hers, its good to get co-operation.
 Try honestly to see things from the other person's
point of view.
 Be sympathetic with the other person's ideas and
desires.
 Appeal to their nobler motives. Make people feel
that you consider them honest, upright and fair.

10.  Dramatize your ideas.
 Throw down a challenge. Every successful
person wants a chance of self expression, the
chance to prove one's worth.
Part III: How to win people to
your way of thinking

11. Part IV: How to change people
 Begin with praise and honest appreciation.
 Call attention to peoples mistakes indirectly.
 Talk about your own mistakes, before criticizing the
other person.
 Ask questions, instead of giving direct orders.
 Let the other person save face.
 Praise the slightest improvement and praise every
improvement. Be "hearty in your approbation ;and
lavish in your praise."
 Give the other person a fine reputation to live up
to.
 Use encouragement. Make the fault seem easy to
correct.

12. Use in Negotiation
Carnegie, The only way to get the best of an
argument is to avoid it
1. Welcome disagreements: Separate people
from the problem
2. Stay calm: first recognize emotions,theirs
and yours
3. Listen first: Listen actively
4. Identify areas of agreement: look for
areas of mutual gain.
5. Admit your errors so they can do the
same: Try to avoid a contest of will.
6. If no resolution, delay action, think more:
one problem is premature judgment.
