Dr. Greg Williams—a globally recognized negotiation and body language expert known as the “Master Negotiator.” He joins me on the show to share insights from over 30 years of experience and his Harvard training. We discuss the importance of meticulous planning and how to recognize and counter aggressive negotiating maneuvers. Dr. Williams shares real-world examples—from complex business deals to high-pressure hostage situations—highlighting the power of adaptability, reading nonverbal cues, and understanding motivation in every negotiation. Packed with actionable advice and memorable stories, this conversation is designed to empower you to approach every negotiation with confidence and integrity. Whether you're facing internal politics or tough procurement professionals, Dr. Williams' expertise will inspire you to refine your negotiation skills and achieve win-win outcomes. Outline of This Episode [03:16] Negotiation tactics vary based on context and goals, requiring adaptability in approach and tone [07:59] Strategies to use in internal conflict in negotiations  [11:16] Use questions to assess if demands are genuine or a negotiation tactic [13:27] Take note of background information for future leverage [17:56] How a hostage situation involving a father with a gun to his son's head was resolved by a body language expert  [20:19] You're always negotiating—what you do today influences tomorrow's activities Closing in High-Stakes Sales Deals A common misconception is that negotiation strategy and tactics are interchangeable. Dr. Williams clarifies the distinction: strategy is the guiding plan you lead with, while tactics are the tools you use to implement that strategy. Tactics support, build upon, and adapt to your strategy as the negotiation unfolds. For example, if your strategy is to make the opposing party feel valued and appreciated, a logical tactic might be to extend an unexpected, thoughtful gift. This gesture utilizes the power of reciprocity—people tend to give back when they receive, which can open the door to more concessions and a friendlier negotiation environment.  Building Adaptive Negotiation Strategies No two negotiations are the same, so an effective negotiator remains flexible and tailors their approach to the unique personalities, organizational goals, and circumstances involved. Confidence, amenability, assertiveness, or neutrality—each can be powerful, but only when used at the right moment. Reading the room and even modulating your voice are subtle yet powerful indicators that shape the dynamics at the negotiation table. The Crucial Role of Preparation and Planning “Planning is everything,” Dr. Williams insists. Entering a negotiation underprepared puts you at a sharp disadvantage. Effective negotiators plot out “what-if” scenarios, establish mile markers to track progress, and construct exit strategies in case the deal veers off-course. Preparation also means looking inward—evaluating your objectives and the motivations of all stakeholders at the table. Dr. Williams highlights how, in complex sales involving multiple internal divisions, misaligned teams can be their own worst enemy, sometimes negotiating harder with each other than with the external party. Internal alignment through clear objectives, information sharing plans, and even mock negotiations helps ensure the team is unified and prepared for whatever the other side brings. Recognizing and Countering Aggressive Tactics Professional procurement negotiators often deploy aggressive moves like last-minute demands or “nibbling” for additional concessions at the end. Dr. Williams advocates assessing the true intent and long-term value of the deal before reacting. By calmly asking probing questions—such as “Why do you need that?”—the negotiator can reveal whether these are genuine concerns or just red herrings designed to extract further concessions. Information gained during these exchanges is invaluable. As Dr. Williams demonstrates through a mock scenario on the podcast, even casual comments about personal or organizational motivations can be leveraged in future negotiations. Top Dos and Don'ts of Negotiation Dr. Williams also shares his top three negotiation dos: Never confuse lack of preparation with being prepared. Enter with your facts, scenarios, and exit plans in hand. Seek to understand motivations. Every party brings hidden drivers to the table—learn them before negotiating. Don't assume a verbal agreement is the end. Post-negotiation follow-up is crucial to ensure all parties stay committed. Conversely, avoid entering deals blindly, neglecting to clarify the other party's interests, and failing to validate the agreement after the negotiation ends.  As Dr. Williams recounts from his own challenging experience negotiating a hostage situation, the most effective negotiators blend empathy, preparation, and adaptability. Whether a life-or-death standoff or a multi-million dollar business deal, the underlying principle remains: leverage your value by viewing every interaction as part of an ongoing negotiation. The best negotiators plan, listen, adapt, and always look for the motivations that move the deal forward.

Today, we're going to go deeper into the world of cyber attacks than we have ever done before. We'll be looking at the insurance claims that they produce as well as the longer-term consequences for their victims Often as journalists covering cyber insurance we focus on the big hacks, the headline numbers, and gloss over the detail of the personal stories and the real hard yards that have to be run to recover from an attack and the potential long-term consequences for a business, its directors, its customers and all other stakeholders. As the immediate damage and business interruption triggers potential regulatory, statutory and other serious third-party consequences, these hard yards often have to be run down multiple different paths simultaneously. The in-depth interviews that follow will deepen your understanding of the more complex and long-tail nature of this peril. I'd like to put you right in the room in the shoes of the Directors of a company as an attack unfolds. We're going behind the scenes to uncover what it's really like when a business becomes the target of a digital assault, from the immediate shock to the long-term repercussions that are often ignored by boards. We're also going to go into detail on how the nature of the cyber threat and the tactics of cyber criminals are evolving. To help me in this task my guests are: Magnus Jelen, (pictured top) Director of Incident Response EMEA for Coveware, a firm that helps victims of cyber extortion recover their data; and three senior executives at Beazley: Raf Sanchez (pictured 2nd from top), Beazley's Head of Cyber Services, Cyber Risks. Melissa Collins, (pictured 2nd from bottom) Head of Third Party Cyber & Tech Claims, and Wayne Imrie, (pictured bottom) Head of London Market Wholesale Executive Risks. Magnus and Raf are right on the front line, dealing with the immediate consequences of a hack. Magnus even deals with the hackers themselves. Melissa deals with the external insurance claims that result and Wayne is a Directors and Officers (D&O) specialist who has a deep understanding of how the D&O and Cyber insurance products interact. LINKS:  As promised, here is the link to Beazley's latest Risk and Resilience Survey Spotlight on Tech Transformation & Cyber Risk 2025: https://www.beazley.com/en-001/news-and-events/spotlight-on-tech-transformation-cyber-risk-2025/

Ken Banta is the founder and CEO of The Vanguard Network, a by-invitation-only community for top-level executives. He and his firm help C-Suite executives and business owners fine-tune their management skills, build valuable new relationships, and elevate the performance of their organizations. One of Ken's surprising recommendations is that companies do away with long-term strategic plans and instead focus primarily on the immediate horizon. “The way things move today is so quick and so unpredictable that having detailed strategies …seems to me to be really antiquated,” he says, akin to trying to predict the location of the next lightning strike. Ken is the author of Seeing Around Corners: C-Suite Wisdom from America's Most Insightful Leaders, a powerful collection of leadership insights from dozens of wise CEOs, general counsels, and boardroom veterans. But Ken's insights aren't only applicable to large companies and for-profit organizations. Any effective leader can take away a great deal of actionable advice from Ken's book and this week's conversation.  Wouldn't it be nice to see around the next corner?

In the powerful finale to our Board Director Series, we meet Emma Olivier, founder of Twenty Percent and passionate advocate for authentic inclusion in Australian boardrooms. After 20 years at Accenture and a career-defining moment that taught her the power of vulnerability, Emma discovered her true calling in creating meaningful change. The statistics are confronting: 20% of Australians have a disability, yet zero directors on the ASX 300 have publicly identified with one. Emma, born without a left hand, brings both lived experience and professional expertise to this crucial conversation about representation where it matters most—at decision-making tables. A LinkedIn post featuring her first professional photo showing her disability generated 1.7 million views and launched her journey to building Twenty Percent, a consultancy focused on real inclusion. Emma demonstrates how showing up as your whole self creates ripple effects far beyond individual success. This conversation is about Emma's mission to ensure the 20% of Australians with disabilities have a voice where it matters most, at the decision-making tables that shape the organizations and communities we all live in. -----------------------   Inside My CEO Calendar: How I Led A Team of 5k+ Without Getting Pulled Back Into the Weeds A behind-the-scenes private podcast for senior female leaders and CEOs who don't need fluff—just sharper thinking, smarter moves, and more time for what matters.

  In this special episode, I sat down with Peter Bissonnette—former President of Shaw Communications—to talk about his remarkable leadership journey and his upcoming book, Count on Me, launching July 18th. Peter's story is anything but conventional. From life in a monastery to serving in the Air Force, and ultimately leading one of Canada's most recognized telecommunications companies, his path to leadership is rooted in humility, adaptability, and service to others. Leadership Lessons from a Life Well-Lived Peter and I explored how his unique experiences shaped a grounded, people-first leadership style. Whether navigating high-stakes negotiations or union agreements, Peter emphasized that values like empathy, accountability, and active listening were key drivers of his success. His book Count on Me captures these moments and lessons, offering a compelling case study in transformational leadership. Shaw Communications: Embracing Change, Staying Human We reflected on Shaw's evolution—from its early days in cable to becoming a major player in internet and wireless services. Peter shared how strategic investments in infrastructure and top-tier talent enabled the company to stay ahead of technological shifts. He also highlighted how Shaw's unwavering commitment to employee well-being and customer experience helped it weather the pandemic's unprecedented challenges. It's a blueprint for change management done right—with heart. Culture as a Catalyst for Success Peter opened up about Shaw's intentional leadership culture, grounded in trust, care, and shared accountability. He described how these values created a sense of belonging and mutual respect across teams. I couldn't agree more—when employees feel supported, they deliver their best. That culture doesn't just drive business results; it builds loyalty and resilience. Why Count on Me Matters Now More Than Ever Peter spent three years writing Count on Me, a legacy project meant to inspire current and future leaders. The book explores the deeper purpose of leadership—how it's less about personal accolades and more about empowering others and leaving things better than you found them. If you care about leadership that lifts people up and strengthens communities, this book is a must-read.
