®With Brandon Voss, President of The Black Swan Group On this episode of the Intelligent Inbound® Podcast, Jen sits down with Brandon Voss, President of The Black Swan Group, as they discuss the art of skillful negotiation and the power of inbound methodology to reach new audiences. Founded by former FBI lead hostage negotiator, Chris Voss, The Black Swan Group teaches companies, teams, and individuals how to navigate complex communication hurdles with real-life hostage negotiation strategies.

Now, with the help of inbound marketing, the team has expanded its reach while building trust with its audience. In doing so, they've created better listeners, and better leaders, one negotiation at a time.

In today's show, we interview special guest Brandon Voss of the Black Swan Group. Brandon is an expert trainer, coach, and thought leader serving as president of the Black Swan Group. Starting his entrepreneurial spirit at a young age detailing yachts at 14, Brandon gained diversity of experience eventually adapting the FBI's hostage negotiation techniques to the business world. Brandon has served as guest lecturer at places such as the USC Marshall School of Business and Georgetown's McDonough School of Business. He joins the show today to discuss the power of negotiation respective to dealing with clients in the home. Brandon details how tactical empathy employed properly can be the difference between a great deal and a great failure.
Brandon Voss explains how the FBI's hostage negotiation techniques can help you become a more effective negotiator in your business and personal life. He shares tips you can use to find common ground and build trust so you have more influence. Brandon says negotiating takes practice, so don't wait for a million-dollar deal to improve your skills! What you will learn: How to establish common ground The accusations audit How to set the right expectations The power of silence It boils down to ego Negotiation is a practiced skill Discover the black swans Trust comes from feeling understood Quotes: “Simply put, ‘you're right' is very dismissive and ‘that's right' is an indicator that someone feels bonded to you.” – Brandon Voss “What needs to be common is that both of us, or both sides, have a full understanding of what the other side is going through mentally, physically, emotionally.” – Brandon Voss “When human beings feel understood by another person or another entity, they immediately start to trust that person or entity and are willing to be influenced by it.” – Brandon Voss “Setting the expectation of, ‘I understand who you are and where you want to go,' is much better than trying to set an expectation based on power or agenda.” – Brandon Voss “I view a successful negotiation as that the person who you're negotiating with, whether you paid more than you wanted or not, they felt like they got what they wanted, and you were the tool they selected to help it happen.” – Derrick Kinney “I think the toughest thing about silence or using what we call ‘dynamic silence' effectively, is just coming to grips with the fact that you will be actively forcing the moment of awkwardness where neither side knows whether or not they should speak.” – Brandon Voss “The person that goes out every day and is making it a point to influence through empathy and understanding and everything, the conversion they have is going to be way more effective than the individual that only uses it when they're sitting at the table and there's $50 million on the line.” – Brandon Voss “When we think we know all the answers, we're less inclined to be empathetic.” – Brandon Voss “It's very difficult for human beings to be genuinely furious and genuinely curious at the same time. Those emotions are just too far apart.” – Brandon Voss Free Valuable Report for our Listeners: “3 Beliefs About Money Your Kids Should Learn That No One is Teaching Them” https://goodmoneyframework.com Follow The Good Money Show on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/goodmoneyframework Recommended Resources: Blackswanltd.com

The Business Method Podcast: High-Performance & Entrepreneurship
How does the FBI, CIA and Special Ops teams negotiate with kidnappers, international terrorists and the most dangerous people on the planet? Are there secret strategies to negotiate that give you a superpower for getting anything that you want? What if you just learned a few key tips on negotiating to save a couple thousand dollars on the price of your next car? Well the truth is, there are tips and strategies we can use to learn how to be better negotiators, they are easy to learn, and it doesn't take months of training to pick up. In fact, everything in life is a negotiation. You negotiate with people you live with, your family, and friends, strangers, and you even negotiate with yourself on a daily basis. Quite often, they are simple things like what you're going to eat for dinner, other times they are more important things, like what school to send your kids to. Good negotiation is really about good communication, and learning to the back and forth of communication well. It is not about manipulation, but about empathic communication, and understanding others points of view. Today, we have one of the top authorities on negotiation on our podcast, and I am really excited to have him on the show! His name is Brandon Voss, and he is the President of The Black Swan Group. The Black Swan Group is a strategic business advisory firm that focuses on business negotiation. Their negotiation structure stems from Brandon's father Chris Voss who was the FBI's lead international kidnapping negotiator for 20 years. They use hostage negotiation skills to solve business negotiation problems, and it works like a charm. It is a process that recalibrates communication efforts in order to close better deals and create long lasting relationships. Brandon is Black Swan's thought leader with respect to the three main negotiator types: The Analyst, the Assertive and the Accommodator. Knowing these three types can change your results massively when closing deals. It gives you an edge over others when sitting at the negotiating table. Throughout the show, we are going to discuss Brandon's strategies, how to use them to make more money, find out how to mitigate conflict with confidence, become a better communicator, and create better relationships in our own lives. Last, but certainly not least, we will talk about the little known ‘Black Swan' effect that is essential to understand when negotiating any deal in your life. 04:57 Who is Brandon Voss? 06:38 Brandon's Most Intense Business Negotiation 14:17 Understanding The Emotional Brain 19:05 Neuroscience of Negotiation 25:10 Is Chris' Negotiation Strategy any Good? 31:57 The Next First Move 35:27 3 Negotiator Types 38:49 The “Black Swan” 44:12 How To Disconnect From a Desired Outcome 47:54 The Short Game 51:02 The Mirroring Tactic 53:40 Active Listening 59:10 Brandon's Dream Negotiation 01:02:32 Where To Find Brandon Voss?

He has made it his mission to teach clients how to identify each of these three types of negotiators and has developed a methodology for dealing with all of them in the most successful way possible. Ever since he was a kid, Brandon has had a strong work ethic. As soon as he was old enough to pick up a shovel and use a hammer, Brandon started working with his grandfather, an entrepreneur who worked as a gas delivery middleman and owned and operated several convenience stores. When he was 14, Brandon opened his own yacht detailing business that he ran until he was 19, overseeing a crew of five workers during that time. Brandon credits his grandfather with the entrepreneurial spirit that has always seemed to be in his blood. After that, Brandon made the leap to sales, working for Macy’s in retail sales before joining Verizon for business-to-business sales. Based on his extensive experience with various selling approaches, Brandon has been instrumental in adapting the FBI’s hostage negotiation techniques to the business world. Realizing that the timetable is different in the business world than in the world of high-stakes hostage negotiations, he created the Short Game, a needs assessment procedure that helps in the critical discovery process phase of negotiation. In addition to training clients, Brandon has served as a guest lecturer at places such as the USC Marshall School of Business and Georgetown’s McDonough School of Business, and at Policy Innovators in Education Network functions.

We start talking about how to learn---you have to practice. This is one of the most important things to get, not just in learning but in life. Too many people read and analyze, expecting to learn. If you don't change your behavior, you aren't learning, which I took a long time to learn.If you read and analyze, you behave impersonally---that is, you don't learn social and emotional skills.Then we talk about his smiling challenge. For what I said last time about it ducking acting environmentally, it showed how experiential exercises work. Reading and traditional learning alone don't get behavioral results like these.Also, he started acting more on wrappers, which I didn't talk about. If I had chastised him last time on doing too little, I think that imposing my values on him that way would have inhibited him to doing more. I tried to react with nonjudgmental support for where he was, not counting what I said in the post-conversation audio, which he didn't hear.Not sure if you heard how the conversation was about support and reward, while still focusing on doing things. At least that was my goal. I consider support one of the most critical elements of leading.Most conversations I see on the environment are analytical and judgmental---"government should do this," "corporations should do that. . . anything but "I'm going to act."I read his saying that he was already doing things as revealing a common but tragic result of mainstream environmental message: that acting distracts or is a chore. I felt that way, but with experience I've made acting on my environmental values become something that adds joy.LeBron James one-hour workoutSteve Nash 20-minute workout See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Since Black Swan’s inception in 2008, Brandon has established assessment procedures for new clients that take their needs, situations, and corporate culture into account so Black Swan’s approach can be customized to each client. Brandon is the thought leader at Black Swan regarding negotiator types. He has made it his mission to teach clients how to identify the basic types of negotiators and has developed a methodology for dealing with each type in the most successful way. Brandon’s background is in sales. He has done retail sales for Macy’s and business-to-business sales for Verizon. Based on his extensive experience with various selling approaches he has been instrumental in adapting the FBI hostage negotiation techniques to the business world. Realizing that the timetable is different in the business world than in high-stakes hostage situations, he created the “Short Game” – a needs assessment procedure that helps in the critical discovery process phase of negotiation. In addition to training clients, Brandon has guest lectured at USC Marshall School of Business, Georgetown McDonough School of Business and organizations like Policy Innovators in Education.

Today I’m talking with Brandon Voss, Co-Founder of Black Swan Group with Chris Voss, his dad and author of Never Split the Difference. Brandon talks about how, as a kid, he noticed the difference in how his dad handled situations compared to others. And, that his dad was able to turn any negative situation into an opportunity. He was intrigued from an early age and applied what he learned from watching his dad to all encounters. As a kid, he was always negotiating his way out of trouble, from things like not wearing his uniform to school and somehow getting away with it with the graces and good wishes of his principal. Well now, he coaches real estate agents, business owners and executives in negotiating multimillion to multi-hundred million dollar deals. Today we talk about how to harness negativity in any difficult circumstance.
Brandon loves negotiation and teaching it. He learned from the top in the field and practices it apparently 24/7. We start our conversation by covering negotiation as developed by an FBI hostage negotiator---Chris, his father.More than the family nature of their business or the FBI basis of his training and technique, I enjoyed his educational approach to negotiation. Brandon wants to help you improve. Keep in mind, his view of negotiation is not the mainstream view where you just use tricks to defeat your counterparty under high-stakes tension.Listeners who have read my books or taken my courses, or know and appreciate what I call Method Learning, will hear that Brandon's teaching technique is like mine: you learn from practicing the basics.The conversation sounds tactical at the beginning---things like what words to use and what goals to seek in a negotiation.As we continue, you'll hear him reveal strategy, and it's not just to win. It's closer to how to live and participate in relationships.I hope you get as much out of the bottle example we talk about as I did, seeing the richness and depth available to grow a relationship in any negotiation.

Brandon Voss is the Director of Operations & Training for The Black Swan Group. Raised in New Jersey, his background consists of tough life lessons learned in the city - and the contrasting experiences with his father's family in the midwest. His role with the BSG consists of wearing many hats, but specifically he works in content creation, sales, handles financials, plus works in coaching. Currently the Black Swan Group focuses on negotiation and communication coaching, plus keynote speaking, as well as running a few virtual courses. Brandon shares that he's always been a people person: he loves to meet people, and talk about communication challenges. He would have (initially) said his purpose was in-line with his father's, teaching people to “deal with bullies”, but it goes beyond that. Brandon loves helping people who are sick of struggling with the same hurdle, or sick of getting “beat up” in situations where they could take a powerful position.

This is another installment of The Self Care series, started in honor of Mac Miller, to address topics concerning our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Something that hits on all three is the art of negotiation. Every week, we encounter dozens of negotiation opportunities, big and small, that require listening, communication, and confidence. This week, we sit down with expert negotiator Brandon Voss. He is the director of training & operations at The Black Swan Group, the premier company and source for learning negotiation techniques when compromise is not an option. Chris Voss, the founder of Black Swan and Brandon’s father, has a quarter century’s worth of FBI experience, was the FBI Lead International Kidnapping Negotiator, and authored the best selling book Never Split The Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It. As the Director of Training and Operations, Brandon has been instrumental in adapting FBI Hostage Negotiation Techniques to the Business World. In addition to Training Clients, Brandon has given talks at USC Marshall School of Business, Georgetown McDonough School of Business, and organizations like Policy Innovators of Education. On this episode, Brandon breaks down many key tenets from the book Never Split The Difference, including how to actively listen, asking calibrated questions to discover more information, the power of silence, and how to get anyone to respond to an email. Personally, I’ve read this book once and listened to the audiobook on a separate occasion. I use many of these tactics daily and have gotten many interviews with bigger artists using things I’ve learned from this book. Even if you aren’t closing fortune 500 deals at the big table, you will find plenty of value in this episode. Life is a negotiation, whether you realize it or not. From bargaining baggage fees at the airport to asking someone out on a date, these principles apply to situations we encounter every day. Negotiation is a practice and what better way to start than with someone who’s made negotiation their life mission. Without further ado, here is our conversation with Brandon Voss.

Brandon Voss is the son of Chris Voss, author of the terrific book, "Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It." In negotiation, there are three types of "yes": 1) Counterfeit (designed to make you go away)2) Confirmation (innocent, reflexive, black & white)3) Commitment (the real deal, leads to action) Is your email getting ignored? Put this in the subject line: "Have you given up on this project?" Other talking points include: - Never underestimate the other side's desire to correct you - The question that stops an aggressive negotiator in his tracks is "How am I supposed to do that?" - The importance of tactical empathy And know this: women are better negotiators than men. It turns out that most females truly understand empathy and that there's power in deference.
