Synopsis
Negotiate Anything is the top ranked negotiation podcast. In this podcast, youll discover how to make difficult conversations easier while getting more of what you want in the process. You'll hear interviews from successful business professionals and thought leaders and discover how they use these skills to advance their businesses and careers. In our sparring sessions, I go head-to-head with our guests in a mock negotiation to give the audience an example of how these techniques can be implemented when dealing with difficult people. We don't just talk about what works, we talk about why it works by uncovering the psychological principles that undergird these techniques. The podcast is as fun as it is informative. Our goal is to increase the competence and confidence of our listeners to empower them to get what they want and deserve out of life, both personally and professionally.
