Learn how to negotiate smarter by using flexibility, contract timelines, and inspection strategy—without giving up the protections first-time buyers need.This episode breaks down what actually drives real estate negotiations (and why preparation months ahead protects your leverage).

Retired agent Phil Andrew shares how his experience surviving one of the nation's first school shootings when he was a twenty-year-old college student impacted his FBI career as a hostage negotiator. Phil reviews a kidnapping case where he negotiated with a member of the terrorist organization behind the Mumbai attacks and a case where he attempted to broker the release of New York Times reporter David Rohde, who was being held captive for ransom by the Taliban in Afghanistan. These case reviews are examples of how Phil turned tragedy into purpose, dedicating his life to keeping communities safe. Phil served in the FBI for 21 years. He is currently a 2026 candidate for the United States Congress in Illinois's 9th Congressional District.

Failure isn't the end of a negotiation — it's the beginning of your biggest breakthrough. In this thought-provoking episode of Negotiate Anything, Kwame Christian sits down with renowned negotiation expert Joshua Weiss to tackle one of the most uncomfortable — and misunderstood — topics in negotiation: failure. Why do smart, capable negotiators struggle so deeply after setbacks? And more importantly, how can failure become a strategic advantage instead of a source of shame? Joshua introduces the powerful ideas behind his book Getting Back to the Table, breaking down why most people learn the wrong lessons from failed negotiations — and how that mistake quietly sabotages future outcomes. Together, they explore the psychology of failure, the role of ego and identity, and the critical difference between blaming yourself, blaming others, and facing the cold, hard facts with clarity and resilience. This episode goes far beyond tactics. It's a deep dive into mindset, self-awareness, and personal growth — revealing how negotiators, leaders, parents, and professionals can reframe failure as a tool for learning, confidence, and long-term success. If you've ever walked away from a conversation replaying what went wrong, this conversation will change how you see failure forever. Negotiate Anything: Take your personal data back with Incogni!

Negotiation isn't a “business skill” — it's an everyday relationship skill. Today we sit down TED Talk speaker, best-selling author, and podcast host of Negotiate Anything, Kwame Christian. He is recognized as one of the world's top negotiation experts, and he got good at it by treating tough conversations like a learnable muscle (not a personality trait).  He breaks great negotiation down into three core skills—listening, curiosity, and emotion management—and offers a flexible framework (“compassionate curiosity”) that keeps things collaborative instead of combative. The big shift: do the internal work first (name your feelings, get clear on what you want), then enter the conversation ready to validate, get curious, and problem-solve—without handing your well-being to the other person.

We talk the ongoing negotiations with the 2026 recruiting class and determine if there are some athletes overpaid or underpaid.

Our inspiring podcast guest today, Scott Tillema, is an award-winning keynote speaker and negotiation expert who helps leaders navigate difficult conversations with confidence, influence, and trust. Drawing on more than 20 years in law enforcement, including his work as an FBI-trained hostage negotiator and a business negotiator trained through the Harvard University Program on Negotiation, Scott brings rare, real-world insight into what it takes to lead effectively in high-stakes moments. His work focuses on showing leaders how to connect first, influence second, and create outcomes that move people and businesses forward. In this episode, Scott unpacks the psychology behind negotiation and human connection through four key factors: understanding, timing, delivery, and respect. He shares how his early life, career in law enforcement, and deep study of human behavior shaped his approach, why judgment blocks connection, and how problem-solving can sometimes stand in the way of true empathy. We also explore what bad leadership can teach us, why influence is a learnable skill, and why we should never forget that connection is at the very heart of influence. Join us for an eye-opening conversation about how to harness the influence you may not even know you have to change the world for the better.   Key Highlights From This Episode: Scott's beginnings in hostage negotiations from studying psychology and working in law enforcement. [04:45] How his childhood and early adult experiences shaped his curiosity about what drives people. [06:53] How judgment acts as a barrier to connection and ultimately negotiation. [11:20] Four factors of negotiation: understanding, timing, delivery, and respect. [17:03] Why it is truly possible for anyone to become a strong verbal influencer. [21:32] What we can learn from bad leadership and the mistakes they make along the way. [26:12] Why problem-solving creates a barrier to true empathy. [31:02] A final word of encouragement about the influence you might not know you have.

Congress ended the shutdown but now faces a tight deadline to fund the Department of Homeland Security, with Democrats and Republicans far apart over immigration enforcement reforms after two U.S. citizens were killed by federal agents in Minnesota.Russia has resumed heavy strikes on Ukraine's power grid during extreme cold, despite President Trump saying Vladimir Putin agreed to pause attacks, putting new strain on fragile diplomatic efforts.And President Trump is calling for the federal government to “take over” elections in some states, escalating concerns among election officials about interference ahead of the midterms.Want more analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun? Subscribe to the Up First newsletter.Today's episode of Up First was edited by Anna Yukhananov, Miguel Macias, Ben Swasey, Mohamad ElBardicy, and Alice Woelfle.It was produced by Ziad Buchh, Nia Dumas, and Christopher Thomas.We get engineering support from Neisha Heinis.

1. U.S. Government & Political Context The podcast opens with a brief discussion of the government shutdown that ended quickly, and is evidence of political posturing rather than substantive conflict. The transition sets the stage for broader national security concerns rather than domestic legislative issues. 2. Emergence of the Polisario Front as a National Security Threat The Polisario Front, a separatist group in Western Sahara founded in 1973, is presented as an underrecognized but growing terrorist threat. Iran is funding, training, and supplying the group, attempting to turn it into a West African proxy similar to the Houthis. Alleged activities include: Collaboration with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Hezbollah Use of drones, weapons transfers, and regional destabilization Labeling the group as a terrorist organization is essential, this represents a dangerous blind spot in U.S. counterterrorism policy. 3. Accusation of Institutional Caution and “Deep State” Resistance State Department officials are portrayed as intentionally evasive during Senate testimony. The analysis claims this reluctance stems from: Ongoing diplomatic efforts in Africa Desire to avoid disrupting negotiations involving Morocco and Algeria 4. Iran at a “Tipping Point” Iran has become internally fragile, facing: Widespread protests Mass casualties allegedly ranging from 10,000–40,000 protesters The Iranian regime’s actions (e.g., drones near U.S. naval assets, attempted tanker seizures) are interpreted as provocations meant to rally domestic support and distract from internal collapse.: Negotiations with Iran are a delaying tactic The U.S. should support Iranian protesters directly, including by providing weapons Regime change is framed as: Preferable if carried out by Iranians themselves Potentially the largest positive national security shift since the Cold War if successful. 5. Global Domino Effect Narrative Iran is grouped with Venezuela and Cuba as regimes allegedly near collapse. Simultaneous democratic transitions in all three would represent a historic geopolitical realignment in favor of U.S. interests. 6. Netflix–Warner Bros. Merger & National Security Concerns The proposed $83 billion Netflix–Warner Bros. merger is criticized on two main grounds: Cultural and ideological influence The entertainment industry is portrayed as overwhelmingly left‑leaning and hostile to conservative or pro‑American perspectives. Concern that increased market power could amplify ideological “propaganda.” Foreign influence Alarm over foreign (especially Middle Eastern and Chinese) capital shaping American entertainment content. Content has been altered or censored to appease foreign governments. The merger is not merely an antitrust issue but as a matter of national sovereignty and cultural security.

If meetings are draining your energy, killing momentum, and stealing your calendar — you're not imagining it. They're broken. And they're costing us trillions. In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole is joined by Dr. Rebecca Hinds, organizational behavior expert, Stanford PhD, and author of Your Best Meeting Ever, to expose why meetings are one of the most expensive, overlooked products inside any organization — and how to fix them. We get into: Why bad meetings are literally an old-school sabotage tactic (thanks, WWII) The real cost of ineffective meetings — and who pays the highest price The 4D CEO Test for deciding if a meeting should exist at all Why status updates don't belong in meetings (ever) The science behind why meetings over 8 people stop working How to measure meetings by return on time invested Why you don't need fewer meetings — you need better ones And how to influence meetings even when you're not the one in charge This conversation is part wake-up call, part permission slip, and part playbook for anyone done pretending “this is just how work works.” Meetings aren't neutral. They shape culture, power, and whose work gets seen — so if your meetings are broken, your organization is too. The good news? You don't need more authority to change them — just more intention.

You'll hear tangible examples of what “walking the walk” actually sounds like in interviews, how to tier your job search like a book of business, and why small moments of delight (like thank-you notes) can make or break an offer. This is less about saying you're a great CSM and more about proving it in real time.By the end, you'll walk away with a clearer strategy, more confidence, and a completely different way to approach your job search—one that de-risks you as a candidate and positions you as the safest hire in the room. If you're ready to stop applying harder and start showing up smarter, hit play and let's dive in.0:46 – Why Customer Success Skills Give You a Unique Edge in the Job Search2:26 – How “Being a CSM” During Your Job Search Proves You Can Do the Job3:21 – Demonstrating (Not Just Talking About) Your CS Skills in Interviews5:26 – What “De-risking” Yourself for Hiring Managers Looks Like8:08 – Managing Your Job Search Like a CSM Manages a Book of Business13:01 – Leveling Up Your Interview Game with Context, Curiosity, and Tying Insights Together20:55 – Why Deep Research and Tailored Outreach Set CSMs Apart21:47 – The Power of Negotiation and Value Selling in CS Job Offers27:16 – How Small Gestures (Like Thank You Notes) Can Get You Hired30:21 – Why Being Intentional Wins In CS Job SearchFREEBIES & RESOURCES:

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the Democrat Party is willing to shut down the government primarily to cripple ICE, preventing the deportation of illegal aliens, including criminals. Democrats hate hardworking American citizens and seek to gain political power by allowing illegal aliens to influence elections. Democrats' opposition to the SAVE Act exists because they want illegal immigrants to vote and cheat in elections. House Republicans must insist on including voter ID requirements in the funding legislation, let Democrats cause a shutdown if necessary, and fight the battle publicly. Also, the media headlines say that Alex Pretti's death was ruled a homicide by the coroner. Most of the media outlets are not explaining that this only means a person or persons caused the death of another, not that a crime was committed. It is not death by accident, suicide, etc. An investigation of his death is underway. Later, Iran is an Islamist terrorist regime slaughtering its own people by the tens of thousands while pursuing nuclear capabilities and long-range missiles. Negotiations or deals are doomed to fail, just like it did with North Korea, where past agreements and subsidies failed miserably. Iran is currently at its weakest—economically devastated and militarily vulnerable—with no need for ground troops to decisively strike its nuclear program.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Negotiation and sales are often treated as tactical skills. Something leaders do at the end of the process, armed with tricks, pressure, and leverage. In this conversation, Todd Caponi makes the case that this mindset is outdated—and increasingly damaging for leaders operating in a world of transparency, information abundance, and long-term accountability.Todd draws on his experience as a former Chief Revenue Officer, his deep study of the history of sales and negotiation, and his latest book, Four Levers Negotiating: The Simple, Counterintuitive Way to Higher Deal Values and Lasting Trust, to challenge conventional wisdom about how deals actually get done. His core argument is simple but provocative: people don't make decisions because they're convinced. They decide when they can predict outcomes. And most leadership behaviors unintentionally undermine that predictability.The conversation explores why traditional negotiation tactics—holding cards close, creating artificial urgency, treating the deal as the finish line—erode trust precisely when it matters most. Todd explains how many of these practices emerged from a very different economic era and why they fail in today's interconnected, reputation-driven environment.At the center of the discussion is Todd's Four Levers framework, which reframes negotiation as a leadership system rather than a personality trait. Instead of games and pressure, the framework focuses on transparency, trade-offs, and shared understanding—creating better decisions for both sides and reducing internal friction across leadership teams.This episode is not about becoming a better negotiator in the traditional sense. It's about how leaders create trust, predictability, and long-term value—whether they are working with customers, boards, partners, or their own leadership teams.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why leaders don't win decisions by persuading harder—but by helping others predict outcomes more clearly.Hear how treating the deal as an “early milestone,” rather than the finish line, changes how leaders approach trust and accountability.Discover why many pricing and negotiation conflicts inside organizations have less to do with money and more to do with unclear decision logic.Learn how Todd's Four Levers framework creates flexibility without sacrificing consistency or trust.Hear why fake urgency and short-term pressure often backfire, even when they appear to work in the moment.Explore how transparency speeds up the right decisions while quickly ending the wrong ones.Understand why predictability is an undervalued leadership asset—and how it affects forecasting, resourcing, and alignment.Learn how sharing constraints, rather than hiding them, can turn resistance into partnership.Connect with Todd CaponiTodd Caponi WebsiteTodd Caponi LinkedInFour Levers Negotiating: The Simple, Counterintuitive Way to Higher Deal Values and Lasting Trust Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

Every day is filled with negotiations. Here's how to start winning them. Any conversation that has a want or a need is a negotiation. It's critical to approach even the low stakes negotiations with the same tools that will win high stakes conversations. But what if the key to better outcomes isn't pushing harder, but listening better? In today's episode of Hello Monday, Jessi Hempel sits down with Jonathan Smith, negotiation instructor and co-author of Fight Less, Win More, to break down why negotiation is really about empathy, trust, and disciplined listening. Drawing on The Black Swan Group's negotiation framework—made famous by Never Split the Difference—Jonathan shares practical tools for navigating conflict, building influence, and getting what you need without damaging relationships. Jonathan is a business strategist and negotiation expert who has spent years teaching leaders, managers, and teams how to communicate in moments that matter most. His work focuses on tactical empathy, emotional intelligence, and the everyday negotiations that shape our careers and lives. Jonathan and Jessi discuss: Why every difficult conversation is a negotiation Tactical empathy and how to help people feel truly heard The “core four” negotiation skills: labels, mirrors, dynamic silence, and summaries How low-stakes practice builds confidence for high-stakes conversations Managing tone, emotion, and self-regulation  Why listening is a discipline—and how it improves trust and influence Using AI as a preparation tool without losing human connection If you want to go deeper on these tools listen to our episode from September, 2025 with The Black Swan Group's founder and CEO, Chris Voss.  Watch on YouTube: https://bit.ly/chrisvoss-hm-youtube  Listen on Apple: https://bit.ly/chrisvoss-hm-apple  Watch/Listen on Spotify: https://bit.ly/chrisvoss-hm-spotify We will be launching the Hello Monday Book Club soon.
