The challenges faced by humanity require us to learn new ways to debate, negotiate and find solutions. This book is not just a great resource for diplomats, but for anyone who needs to be part of those arguments. And that is all of us.

If the art of advertising is to inform and persuade, then this book’s arrival at a point when we are beginning to reimagine how we work, and how we behave to build a better world could not be better timed. I loved this book and I’m certain you won’t need to work in advertising to feel the same.

Who would have thought that a book about disagreement would be such fun? Brown's thesis, zestily delivered, is that conflict is absolutely necessary in any kind of group, but we tend to be rather bad at it - shouting matches and shrinking violets never solved anything. I Don't Agree navigates the barriers to constructive dialogue and challenges preconceptions of what a healthy culture looks like.

- Adam Gale, Editor Management Today,

In an increasingly polarised - and seemingly angry - society, it would seem eminently sensible to think hard about how we collaborate and communicate better with our fellow humans; at work, at home and in public discourse. Michael's book takes a fresh look at positive discussion and vital negotiating skills.

- Danny Rogers, editorinchief, PRWeek,

I Don’t Agree is an exciting, innovative book that gets to the heart of one of the biggest issues of the day; how to collaborate and get things done despite our disagreement. This book has a compelling, humorous style that gets you gripped from the start – it’s sure to be a gamechanger for the future of leadership.
