The Anti-Manipulator. Part 2: 20 Manipulator Techniques

Yuri Sokolov built his career in modern IT companies—as a successful manager of sales, marketing, development, and so on. For a long time, he worked as a business trainer and mentor for specialists in advertising, banking, industrial, and IT spheres.

“In this book, I expand the context, and we will dive into theories and concepts popular in practical psychology,” the author promises in the preface. “Over 20 years of my professional practice in negotiations, training, running meetings, and resolving conflicts, I encountered many manipulations. While working on my first book, I tried to systematize them and found that manipulation has many forms, but a fairly limited content. As a result, I ended up with a list of 20 of the most common manipulations—phrases, actions, emotions. We’ll deal with them in the book ‘Antimanipulator. Part 2.’ You’ll get clear recommendations on how to counteract them and become an unscalable rock for any clever trickster.”

The reader will be able to apply the book’s practical advice and recommendations in any area of life: from talking with children to difficult negotiations with clients.
