The Negotiation Society podcast

How can the super-skill of negotiation enhance your life and career? What are the secrets to effective negotiation, and what happens when it goes wrong?

The Negotiation Society podcast serves up interviews with diverse and inspirational leaders from around the world to ask these questions and more, finding out along the way what makes them tick, how they got to where they are today, and the role that negotiation has played. Expect candor, insight, and (naturally), plenty of negotiation learning.
