Aram and Nolan are discussing multiparty negotiations today. These can be internal or external negotiations. Whether you’re managing 3 people or 300, the situation gets complex fast. Our hosts break down the process so that everyone is consulted, respected and heard.

This week on the NEGOTIATEx Podcast, Aram and Nolan discuss managing working relationships. This may sound simple but the reality is that a lot of people aren’t sure how to do it well. As a result, bridges get burnt and negotiations fail. 

Aram and Nolan tackle a listener-submitted question today: A former student of Aram’s has proposed an operations redesign. Unfortunately, however, her supervisor is resistant. How should she handle it?

Many negotiators operate from comfortable chairs at calm tables. However, you won’t elevate your influence by focusing on the easy times, alone: Are you prepared to handle unfriendly situations? Nolan and Aram recount their experience on and off the battlefield in this edition of the NEGOTIATEx podcast.

What happens if you find yourself negotiating with someone who’s aggressively obnoxious? How do you handle mean or selfishness counterparts? In this edition of the NEGOTIATEx podcast, Nolan and Aram share insights on working with the unhelpful.

In our previous episode, Nolan and Aram discussed the 7-Elements of Negotiation: Relationship, Communication, Interests, Options, Legitimacy, Alternatives, and Commitment. You can use these in varying systems of negotiation. However, some choices will bring more value to clients than others. That’s why this episode is about selecting your best.
