    How My Friends Negotiate | Episode 2: Ruth Gotian

    On this episode of How My Friends Negotiate, host and professor Andrea Schneider welcomes leadership expert and author Ruth Gotian for a conversation on negotiating at the highest levels. Ruth shares the behind-the-scenes story of negotiating her book advance and publishing deal, offering candid insights into what it takes to advocate for your value. She reflects on the early days of working remotely—long before it was common—and how creating flexibility sometimes requires negotiating norms that don’t yet exist. The conversation also dives into salary negotiation strategies, especially for high achievers who may struggle to ask for more. At the heart of the episode is Ruth’s powerful framework for opportunity creation: find a need, show the need, and demonstrate how you can fill that gap. Drawing on her research studying Nobel Prize winners, astronauts, Olympic and NBA champions, and senior executives, she explains how top performers don’t wait for doors to open; they build them. Dr. Ruth Gotian is a globally recognized expert in mentorship and leadership development. Named a top 20 mentor worldwide and ranked the #1 emerging management thinker by Thinkers50, she is the award-winning author of The Success Factor and The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring. A former Chief Learning Officer and mentoring dean at Weill Cornell Medicine, she now serves as Managing Director of her advisory and executive coaching practice, helping leaders and organizations unlock sustained high performance.
