A High Stakes Showdown

As I have learned over the years, every negotiation is preceded by a “chicken dance.” During the dance, the parties go through a series of antics and actions they believe will enhance their position at the negotiating table by gaining power over the other party or parties.

Watch how this plays out at a high stakes level.  Pay attention to what is going on preparatory to, and during, the June 17th meeting of the European politicians regarding economic growth for the EU, the future of the EU itself, the future of the Euro and overall fiscal policy for the member countries.
