William Ury: The walk from “no” to “yes”

In this TED talk, William Ury , author of “Getting to Yes,” offers an elegant, simple (but not easy)  way to create agreement in even the most difficult situations — from  family conflict to, perhaps, the Middle East.

Excerpt from the talk:

There’s a lot of conflict. And the question is, how do we deal with our differences? How do we deal with our deepest differences given the human propensity for conflict and the human genius at devising weapons of enormous destruction?……The secret to peace is us. It’s us who act as the surrounding community around any conflict, who can play a constructive role.
