And based on your viewpoint, how successful are you at convincing others to "Get to Yes"? There must be numerous situations where you may have had to deal with people and convince them of the strength or correctness of your ideas. Do you dryly put forth the facts and let the chips fall where they may? Or do you give your ideas a fighting chance of being accepted, especially when your un-emotional, unequivocally-logical suggestion may well be the only viable way out of a situation? Do you ever have to build consensus amongst a team of smart, driven people who may not all be Turing-complete automatons?
