8 de junho de 2026 · 37 min

Notas do episódio

Most people walk into a negotiation hoping reason will win. Then the other side throws a punch, and suddenly your "win-win" mindset starts costing you money, leverage, and sleep. Whether you're dealing with a tough client, a legal threat, or a conflict that got personal fast, you need to know what kind of negotiation you're actually in. So how do you protect the relationship without getting steamrolled?

In this episode, host Donald Miller sits down with John Lowry, negotiation expert and author of Negotiation Made Simple, to talk about what to do when nice stops working. John explains how to spot competitive negotiators, use power without letting your ego drive, and shift a stuck conversation toward a smarter outcome. You'll learn when to accommodate, when to compete, and when to hit pause before the whole thing blows up. Listen in to learn the skills to turn a tense negotiation into a better result.
