The Zen of successful negotiations
• Why you have to get out of your own head
• “I’ve got some good lessons about what I bring from swimming”
(Total Recorded Time is 23:13)
Successful negotiation – where there’s a balancing of needs – can be reached easier if those involved bring mindfulness to the negotiation table, says Matthew Moseley, a communication strategist, author and speaker.
He says that while active listening is a key skill for successful negotiation, doing it effectively requires getting out of your own head and developing empathy.
This is something he honed while setting three world records for long-distance swimming. “I’ve got some good lessons about what I bring from swimming and adventure swimming to the meeting table,” Mr. Moseley says.
He joins us for this Bizgnus podcast.
