Get ready for surprising insights (and let\u2019s hope you can keep secrets, or else\u2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Negotiate like a car salesman<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Car salespeople are considered masters of negotiation.

Each aircraft has some essential instruments &#8211; and, interestingly, they are always arranged in the same way. Guy explains why this is, how they work, and what experienced managers can learn from new pilots. Because without a functioning cockpit, you could easily crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-is-guy-katz-the-flying-professor\">Who is Guy Katz &#8220;The Flying Professor&#8221;?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>He acquired his expertise in communication and negotiation early on as an intelligence officer during his military service.
