insufficient attention
Hello,
Can you please help me with the following sentence. Is it OK? What should I change?
One of the possible reasons of insufficient attention of the academic publicity/audience/experts probably lies in the fact that until recently negotiation was considered to be exclusively business or diplomatic skill ascribed to especially endowed/capable and talented individuals and people of great experience in business or politics.
Thank you

Hi Antonia, Here is the sentence with some changes. One of the possible reasons for insufficient attention from the academic publicity/audience/experts (I don't know which of these choices best suits your meaning) probably lies in the fact that , until recently , negotiation was considered to be an exclusively business or diplomatic skill possessed by especially capable and talented individuals and people of great experience in business or politics. However, I think it has no clear focus because it is too long.

Hello Clive,
Thank you for your help.
The meaning of the pink sentence relates to the rest of the sentence as follows, academics neglected negotiation because they thought it belonged exclusively to business and diplomacy and they refrained from it and feared it because they thought they should leave it to people who were actually using it in practice, ie academics thought nego
