"Eliane has extensive knowledge of different cultures and, more importantly, she is gifted in passing this knowledge to her customers. Indeed, thanks to her work I managed to shift the marketing approach of my company to effectively target new markets. Her coaching sessions also provided me with helpful tips to successfully deliver a message to targeted audiences.

"There are people and books that can radically change for the better, the way you think and act. It's even more spectacular when it happens to experienced people who have more than 20 years of experience in international business. That was my case. If you are not afraid to challenge your brain, read Eliane Karsaklian's books. Results guaranteed!
Ernest Boswarva
Attorney and past Executive in the Oil & Gas sector

“In her second book on negotiations, Eliane Karsaklian draws the readers' attention to the need to ensure the success of the contract by making it come alive in the form of a relationship that needs ongoing communications, reliability, commitment and respect among the parties. This book is a necessary and nice addition to her earlier books dealing with this multifaceted dynamic subject. Knowledge of the guidance given in this book should lead the negotiator to develop and achieve a lasting, robust and workable agreement founded on a strong relationship avoiding unnecessary frustration and failure.
Dr. Mark Shanley
Professor and Associate Dean
for Academic Affairs
University of Illinois of Chicago

"Professor Karsaklian’s analysis follows from the shift to thinking of relationships rather than deals. If that shift occurs, then the management of the relationship after the deal is as, or more, important than the deal itself. This implies that the relationship is worth more than particular interactions that it may bring about. The benefits of the deal are part of a larger set of changes necessitated by the new relationship. If the firm has thought through its strategy, then the period after the deal is also a crucial period of learning for the firm, as it expands its horizons and benefits from updating and enhancing its operations internationally. Leaving old routines in place is unacceptable. This book is refreshingly relative to most of the business trade books on negotiation out on the market.

"The After-Deal is a fruitful reading written by someone that has an in-depth knowledge of the negotiation process and helps us understand why closing a deal is too often the end of a business relationship. The tips and techniques presented in this book represent the missing link for a successful and sustainable business relationship. I’ve already started to recommend this tool to my customers.

"In the After-Deal, Dr. Eliane Karsaklian shares precious knowledge and advice that will not only develop your negotiation skills, but most importantly elevate your long-term relationship with your business partners.

"When I came across this book, I was delighted to discover that Eliane Karsaklian has used her unique perspective, combining her experience in international negotiation and science, to produce new insights. Just as the physics looks for the simplest discoverable principles underlying the components of the universe, so this book brings out the key elements at the heart of negotiation.
