  Drug Cartels - The Dark...

  Drug cartels have become a pervasive and highly organized criminal force with a significant global reach. These powerful syndicates control large portions of the illegal drug trade, operating not only within their home countries but across continents. Their operations extend far beyond drug trafficking, often influencing global markets, politics, and even social structures. The history of drug cartels is intertwined with the rise of drug consumption worldwide, as their growth is directly linked to the increasing demand for illicit substances such as cocaine, heroin, methamphetamines, and marijuana. 
  The origins of modern drug cartels can be traced back to the mid-20th century, when illicit drug trade routes first began to form. Latin America, with its extensive agricultural regions, became a focal point for the cultivation of drugs, particularly in countries like Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. These regions not only provided the raw materials needed for drug production but also became hubs for smuggling operations that reached the United States, Europe, and other parts of the world. 
  Cartels began to emerge as centralized organizations within these areas, with influential leaders at the helm. The most notorious of these early cartels, such as the Medellín and Cali cartels in Colombia, gained immense wealth and power. By the 1980s and 1990s, they had established networks that spanned the globe, trafficking drugs through elaborate and sophisticated systems of production, distribution, and money laundering.

  Introvert Negotiators Can...

  Leverage is often the primary factor that moves negotiated outcomes in favor of one party at the expense of the other party. Leverage in negotiations is the power that one party has to influence - or control - the other party to the negotiation. Leverage is, therefore, incredibly important in determining the outcome of the negotiation. 
  If you think of a negotiation as dividing up a pie, leverage is, in fact, so powerful that someone with very poor negotiating skills, but who holds a lot of leverage, can often obtain the biggest piece of the pie - or even most of the pie - despite having very poor negotiating skills. Should a negotiator have both excellent negotiating skills and substantial leverage, that negotiator will easily dominate the negotiation. 
  Which party has the stronger influence or control over the other party can shift throughout the negotiation. Leverage is also not consistent with respect to all issues of the negotiation. You could have a lot of leverage in one area of the negotiation, but very little leverage in other areas of the negotiation. You might also have a lot of leverage over some specific individual members of the other team, but hardly any leverage over other specific individual members of the other team. You must, therefore, strategically apply your leverage in the way that maximizes your control of the negotiation. 
  Throughout this book, we'll discuss many ways you can both increase your leverage and decrease the other party's leverage. There are many different sources of leverage that can be easily gained or lost through your actions or the actions of the other party. 
  You'll be able to start applying what you've learned immediately after you've finished reading this book by using the example procedures, responses, strategies, behaviors, and action steps. It works; and it will work for you. Read this book, apply the information, and see for yourself.
