    On failure in negotiation with Joshua Weiss

    Joshua Weiss is a negotiation and conflict resolution expert, Senior Fellow at the Harvard Negotiation Project and the co-founder of the Global Negotiation Initiative at Harvard University. He is also the Director of the MS in Leadership and Negotiation at Bay Path University. Finally he has his own private consulting firm where he designs and facilitates customized negotiation and conflict resolution solutions for businesses, organizations, international entities, governments, and individuals. Known for his work on understanding and managing negotiation dynamics, Josh brings a unique perspective on the importance of learning from failure. His approach encourages negotiators to move beyond ego and blame, focusing instead on resilience and adaptability. Josh's forthcoming book, "Getting Back to the Table: 5 Steps for Reviving Your Negotiations", analyzes strategies for overcoming setbacks, providing a structured framework for returning to negotiations with renewed insight and confidence. In this episode, we address a topic that often goes unspoken but affects every negotiator: failure. Inspired by insights from Josh's recent project, we explore why failure is an unavoidable, yet crucial part of mastering negotiation. From missed agreements to relationship damage, failures can come in many forms, but they all have one thing in common—they offer invaluable lessons if we’re willing to learn. We start by defining failure and examining the common types of negotiation failures that happen when negotiators miss their goals or objectives, often failing to secure a successful outcome or striking a regretable deal. This exploration is followed by a look at effective responses to setbacks, highlighting the different ways negotiators can handle failures—whether through blaming others, avoiding further negotiations, or building resilience. The episode then introduces how to foster a resilient negotiation mindset by unlearning counterproductive habits, such as the tendency to compromise prematurely, and replacing them with growth-oriented strategies that emphasize creativity and adaptability. This episode provides you with actionable steps to transform failure into a stepping stone for success.

    On Star Wars and conflict resultion with Jen Reynolds and Noam Ebner

    Have you ever realized that at the core of Star Wars lies an eternal conflict? It's a clash as old as time itself: Jedi Knights pitted against Sith Lords, rebels challenging the might of the empire, and the eternal struggle between dark and light, good and evil. But beyond the mesmerizing visual spectacle, Star Wars serves as a mirror to our own existence, reflecting how we struggle with opposing interests, gravitating towards one side or the other, and wrestling with the consequences of our choices. From the sweeping battles of the Clone Wars to the struggles within characters' hearts, every aspect of Star Wars resonates with the tension of opposing forces. Whether it's the clash of lightsabers or the moral dilemmas faced by heroes and villains alike, conflict is the cornerstone upon which the vast and immersive universe of Star Wars is built. ... and what's better than a book on Star Wars and conflict resolution? Yes, you're right! A sequel of such book! In "Star Wars and Conflict Resolution: My Negotiations Will Not Fail," beautifully orchestrated by Jennifer Reynolds and Noam Ebner, experts from various fields—law, management, psychology, mediation, negotiation, communication, political science, and human resources—share their insights on negotiation and conflict management. Using examples from the Star Wars saga, the book offers valuable lessons on negotiation and leadership. It proposes alternative approaches, suggesting how the Jedi could have preserved peace by mediating disputes rather than resorting to aggressive tactics, potentially averting the downfall of the Galactic Republic and the rise of the Empire. By applying these insights to everyday interactions, the book empowers us to enhance their negotiation and conflict resolution skills, bridging the gap between the galaxy far, far away and our own. We begin this episode by sharing our immediate associations evoked by Star Wars, reflecting on its iconic imagery and cultural impact. From there, our discussion naturally transitiones to the root causes of conflict in the galaxy. This leads us to analyze negotiation within the Star Wars universe, particularly prompted by the subtitle of the book, "My negotiation will not fail." We debate whether negotiation consistently fails within the franchise, despite characters' assertions to the contrary. Our conversation also touches upon the leadership styles of characters like Padmé Amidala and Palpatine, focusing on the lessons we can learn from them. We examine critically the failures of the Jedi Order in maintaining peace in the galaxy, questioning whether they were adequately trained to prevent conflict and resolve it peacefully. Moreover, we consider faction one might prefer to work for, weighing the merits and drawbacks of the Republic, Trade Federation, Empire, and Alliance. Our exploration extendes to negotiating like a Sith, analyzing their negotiation styles and the perceived power of the dark side. Finally, we reflect on the character of Luke Skywalker, questioning whether he is truly a hero or if we can learn more from his mistakes. Tune in and may the Force be with you!
